Nnadozie was one of five goalkeepers shortlisted for the award, which was won by England and Chelsea’s Hannah Hampton. Ann-Katrin Berger of Germany and Gotham finished second, Spain and Barcelona’s Cata Coll placed third, while Netherlands and Arsenal’s Daphne van Domselaar came fifth.

Reacting to the achievement, Brighton wrote on their women’s X handle:

“Chiamaka Nnadozie is fourth in the #TrophéeYachine rankings at this year’s #BallonDor! Congratulations on your nomination, Chiamaka!”

Meanwhile, Super Falcons coach Justine Madugu also secured fourth place in the Women’s Coach of the Year award. The category was won by Sarina Wiegman of the Netherlands, who guided England to victory at the European Women’s Championship.

Madugu earned recognition for leading the Super Falcons to a record-extending 10th Women’s Africa Cup of Nations (WAFCON) title in Morocco.
