Arriving at Paris FC in 2020 from Nigeria’s River Angels FC, Nnadozie quickly established herself as a key member of the team.

“Arriving at Paris FC in 2020 from River Angels FC, Chiamaka immediately became a key part of the team. Best goalkeeper in Arkema Première Ligue in 2023-2024, she left Paris FC after a magnificent victory in the Coupe de France in which she was one of the main players.”

“Paris FC warmly thanks 𝐂𝐡𝐢𝐚𝐦𝐚𝐤𝐚 for these five years, which will forever leave a mark on the club's history. We wish her the best for the next stage of her career.”

Nnadozie was the heroine as Paris won the French Cup.

Nnadozie’s departure signals the close of a significant era for both player and club, as she looks forward to new challenges in her career.

Her time at Paris FC not only showed her talent but also helped raise the profile of Nigerian women’s football on the international stage.

Chiamaka Nnadozie is the reigning African GOTY.

With Nnadozie now a free agent, it will be interesting to know where the CAF goalkeeper of the Year will play next season, even as she prepares to lead the Super Falcons to WAFCON next year.
