The 23-year-old further enhanced her reputation this season with her penalty saving heroics.
The Nigeria international saved seven penalties this season, the highest by any goalkeeper in Europe.
Paris FC president Pierre Ferracci eulogised the goalie for her exemplary displays and claimed she deserved to win the award.
“It’s very pleasing, because she deserves it and she achieved an exceptional Champions League and not only on penalties. She is adorable. It is deserved. We know that she will be courted this summer but we will try to keep her,” Ferracci said at the ceremony.
Paris FC are third in the League with 42 points, eight points behind Paris Saint-Germain, their local rivals, and a further 11 points away from Lyon, the league leaders.

Chiamaka airline you’re great.
Best goalkeeper in Super Falcon’s history. Congrats Chiamaka.
Best Nigerian keeper ever??? arguable bro, she has to keep for up to 10 years to attain that feat.
Nah, She has already been to two World Cups and two Nations Cup. She is the first Falcons goalkeeper to play in the Champions League. That is legacy right there. She is the best Falcons’ goal keeper ever!
APOTY for 2024
