“But to be honest, I’ve never seen offers on my table, but you know when there are rumours, I wish all the rumours to come to pass.”
After helping Nigeria to overcome Bafana in the semi-finals, Nigerian media advised the keeper not to return to South Africa due to threats, however, Nwabili brushed the rumours aside.
Nwabili also thanked his club chairman, Chippa Mpengesi for supporting him and Nigeria during the Afcon tournament.
“The chairman gave me a lot of reasons to work at Afcon because he sent me a lot of messages and even wished me well ahead of his own country.
“It’s something I didn’t believe; I asked myself why this man would do such a thing. I really appreciate him, and to be honest, I owe him a lot; people are saying Stanley must leave Chippa. I wish to work for him for another two years, but I don’t think that wish will come,” Nwabili added.
