Super Falcons goalkeeper Comfort Erhabor has joined Women’s Super League (WSL) side Crystal Palace on a two-year contract.

The English club announced the signing late Thursday, welcoming the Nigeria international as its latest addition.

“Crystal Palace Women are delighted to announce the signing of Nigeria international goalkeeper Comfort Erhabor,” the club said on its website.

Erhabor expressed her excitement about the move, describing it as a significant step forward in her career.

“It feels really good to be here. I’m very excited to get started,” she said. “I’m aspiring to play at the highest level, so this is a really big step in my career.”

Crystal Palace manager Jo Potter also welcomed the 21-year-old goalkeeper, saying: “Comfort is a promising young goalkeeper, and we are thrilled to have her here at Palace.”

Erhabor joins the Eagles from Portsmouth, whom she signed for in July 2025. She made six appearances for the club across all competitions.

She began her career at the Brighton & Hove Albion Academy before spending loan spells at Hibernian and Plymouth Argyle.

Born in the Netherlands and raised in England, Erhabor chose to represent Nigeria at international level.

She made her Super Falcons debut in February 2026 in a friendly against Cameroon and was subsequently included in Nigeria’s squad for the 2026 Women’s Africa Cup of Nations (WAFCON).

However, she did not feature during the tournament as Nigeria were eliminated by eventual champions Cameroon in the quarter-finals.

Erhabor is the latest Super Falcons player to move to an English club, following defender Rofiat Imuran’s transfer to Aston Villa Women for the 2026/27 season.

Imuran joined Villa from London City Lionesses, having previously started her professional career with French club Stade de Reims.
