Kwara United goalkeeper Nurudeen Badmus wins Player of the Month award in Nigeria

Kwara United goalkeeper Nurudeen Badmus has won the Nigeria Premier Football League (NPFL) Player of the Month for October after a series of standout performances.

Badmus played a crucial role in the club’s success over the month, earning him the prestigious award.

The enterprising shot stopper was outstanding for his outfit, making 24 crucial saves, including a key penalty stop. He also recorded two clean sheets and conceded only four goals, showing exceptional composure and consistency.

The dependable goalkeeper edged out teammates Aule Johnmark, Gidado Toheeb, and Yahaya Ibrahim to win the award, securing an overwhelming 85.71 percent of fan votes.

Badmus received the award just before Kwara United’s impressive 3-1 victory over defending champions Remo Stars in their first game of November.

The Ilorin-based shot-stopper started in goal for the match and once again played a crucial role in the team’s strong performance.
