Chiamaka Nnadozie joins Brighton in the Women’s Super League after shining in France with Paris FC.
The Super Falcons goalkeeper brings experience and confidence to boost Brighton’s hopes this coming season.
Nigeria’s first-choice goalkeeper, Chiamaka Nnadozie, has completed a high-profile move to Brighton & Hove Albion, marking a new chapter in her career in the English Women’s Super League (WSL). The 23-year-old shot-stopper will officially join the Seagulls on July 1, following the expiration of her contract with Paris FC.
Brighton beat Everton in the race to sign Nnadozie, underscoring their ambition to strengthen the squad ahead of the new WSL season. Her signing is expected to bolster Brighton’s defensive stability as they look to climb the league table.
During her five-year stint in France, Nnadozie established herself as one of the top goalkeepers in European women’s football. She was instrumental in Paris FC’s domestic campaigns, with one of her standout performances coming in the Coupe de France Féminine, where she saved two penalties against Paris Saint-Germain, a feat that sealed the club’s victory and cemented her reputation as a big-game performer.
Known for her composure, agility, and exceptional reflexes, Nnadozie has become a symbol of consistency for both club and country. Her leadership and presence between the posts have made her a fan favorite and a reliable last line of defense.
The move to Brighton not only signifies a major career step for the Nigerian international but also adds another African talent to the WSL, a league increasingly attracting top players from across the continent.
Nnadozie has already earned wide recognition on the global stage, particularly for her heroics with the Super Falcons at international tournaments, including multiple FIFA Women’s World Cup appearances. Her rise through the ranks has made her one of Africa’s most promising football exports.
With her arrival, Brighton hopes to inject experience and resilience into their squad as they aim for a stronger showing in the upcoming season. For Nnadozie, the move is both a personal and professional milestone, another step toward greatness in a flourishing career.
