Chiamaka Nnadozie in the list

Nigeria’s Chiamaka Nnadozie has been counted among the top female goalkeepers in the world as a nominee for the 2025 Ballon d’Or Yachine Trophy.

The Falcons star, on Thursday, was named alongside Cata Coll (Barcelona), Ann-Katrin Berger (Germany), Hannah Hampton (England), and Daphne van Domselaar (Netherlands).

Nnadozie’s commanding presence in goal during the Women’s African Cup of Nations and the league earned her global respect.
