Super Eagles goalkeeper, Stanley Nwabali, has reportedly been threatened by South Africans not to return to his clubside, Chippa United, following his outstanding performance against the country.
The threats came after Nigeria’s victory over South Africa in the AFCON 2023 semi final match.
Former Super Eagles international, Idah Peterside, revealed this while speaking on channels television on thursday.
Peterside said some fans have already told the Super Eagles shot-stopper not to return to Chippa United after the tournament.
He said, however, that there have only been threats, and no violence has been recorded.
It is said that some South Africans are not pleased that the goalkeeper prevented their team from making it to the finals.
Nwabali was excellent during the semi-final clash against the Bafana Bafana in the semi-final clash on Wednesday.
The goalkeeper stopped multiple attempts by South African players during regulation time before going on to save two spot-kicks during the penalty shootout.
