Nnadozie ranked fourth-best female goalkeeper in the world 

Chiamaka Nnadozie has been voted the fourth-best goalkeeper in women’s football for the 2024/25 season. 

The Super Falcons goalkeeper was voted among the top five female goalkeepers on Monday at the Ballon d’Or ceremony held at the Théâtre du Chatelet in Paris, France.

The 24-year-old finished behind Hannah Hampton of England, the winner of the prize, as well as Ann-Katrin Berger of Germany and Cata Coll of Spain, who placed second and third, respectively.

Nnadozie ranked ahead of only Daphne van Domselaar among the five goalkeepers nominated for the prize.

The 2025 Yachine award for women’s best goalkeeper is the first instalment of the prize. Nnadozie is also the first African to be nominated for the award.

Nnadozie was the goalkeeper for the Super Falcons of Nigeria as the team won their 10th Women’s Africa Cup of Nations (WAFCON) title in Morocco.

She was named the top goalkeeper in the WAFCON tournament after preserving four clean sheets in Nigeria’s six matches.

She has been a constant performer with the Falcons, winning the CAF Women’s Keeper of the Year award twice.

Sabrina Wiegman, who led England’s women’s team to victory at the 2025 Euros, topped Justine Madugu of the Super Falcons for the title of greatest coach.
