À propos de cet audio

Chiamaka Nnadozie is the first African woman to be nominated for a Ballon d'Or award, for the Yachine Trophy for the world's best female goalkeeper in 2025. The 24 year old helped Nigeria win a record-extending 10th Women's Africa Cup of Nations title in July, a month after securing a dream move to the Women's Super League. We hear from Chiamaka on what's been a so far unforgettable year while Lee James, Maz Farookhi and former Nigeria international goalkeeper Rachel Ayegba discuss what it would mean to the continent of Africa if she were to win the trophy. Could it have the same affect as that of George Weah’s historic Ballon d’Or win in in 1995?
