Nnadozie, who moved to the English Women’s Super League this summer after a stellar spell at Paris FC, has enjoyed a sensational year.
She played a key role in Nigeria’s 10th Women’s Africa Cup of Nations triumph, where she was named Best Goalkeeper of the Tournament.
At club level, she guided Paris FC to a famous Coupe de France Féminine victory, saving two penalties in the final against Paris Saint-Germain before sealing a move to Brighton.
The 24-year-old has already made an immediate impact in England, keeping a clean sheet on her debut against Aston Villa and earning the Player of the Match award.
Her remarkable performances have not gone unnoticed globally, with her Ballon d’Or recognition confirming her status as one of the finest goalkeepers in women’s football today.
