Nigeria international goalkeeper Comfort Erhabor has joined Crystal Palace Women on a two-year deal ahead of the 2026/27 Women’s Super League season.   The 21-year-old goalkeeper completed her move from Portsmouth, where she made six appearances across all competitions after joining the club in July 2025. Crystal Palace announced the signing on Thursday, welcoming Erhabor as the latest addition to their squad. Erhabor said she was excited about the move and viewed it as an important step in her career. “It feels really good to be here. I’m very excited to get started.” Palace manager Jo Potter also welcomed the Nigerian international, describing her as a promising young goalkeeper. Erhabor began her football career at the Brighton & Hove Albion Academy before gaining experience on loan at Hibernian and Plymouth Argyle. Born in the Netherlands and raised in England, she chose to represent Nigeria internationally. She made her Super Falcons debut in February 2026 during a friendly against Cameroon. She was subsequently included in Nigeria’s squad for the 2026 Women’s Africa Cup of Nations. However, she did not feature during the tournament as the Super Falcons were eliminated by eventual champions Cameroon in the quarter-finals.
