Chiamaka Nnadozie has been crowned the Women’s Best Goalkeeper at the 2025 CAF Awards, securing the honour for the third year in a row and cementing her status as one of global football’s elite shot-stoppers.
The Brighton & Hove Albion goalkeeper previously claimed the inaugural editions of the award in 2023 and 2024, marking a dominant run on the African and international stage.
Now 24, Nnadozie enjoyed a stellar year for both club and country. She delivered a standout performance at the 2024 Women’s Africa Cup of Nations, where she played a key role in the Super Falcons’ triumphant campaign as they lifted a record-extending 10th continental title.
Her impressive form extended to club football as well. Before joining Brighton, she helped Paris FC clinch the Coupe de Féminine in May and earned a historic nomination for the 2025 Yachine Trophy — becoming the first African player to ever be shortlisted for the prestigious global award.
