Ernest Nuamah, the exceptional Ghanaian talent, has etched his name into history by becoming the fourth Ghanaian player to don the colors of French Ligue 1 giants Olympique Lyonnais, marking a pivotal moment in his young career.

Having made a significant impact during his time with FC Nordsjaelland, Nuamah embarks on a new chapter as he takes up a one-year loan deal with Lyon from sister Belgian club RWMD.

Lyon, in an official statement released on Wednesday, August 30, confirmed the highly anticipated signing of the sought-after youngster, reinforcing the club's commitment to nurturing emerging talent.

“Eagle Football and Olympique Lyonnais are very pleased to announce the arrival of Ghanaian international striker, Ernest Nuamah, from RWDM, in the form of a loan until June 30, 2024.”

Nuamah's arrival places him within an exclusive fraternity of Ghanaian players who have graced the ranks of Lyon, an esteemed company that includes renowned names like Michaël Essien, assistant coach at Nordsjaelland, legendary Abedi Pele, and John Mensah.

Hailing from the vibrant city of Kumasi and born in October 2003, Nuamah brings an impressive array of skills to the forefront as he joins the prestigious French giants.

His versatility on the field is accentuated as he arrives at Lyon on a season-long loan from Belgian Jupiler Pro League side R.W.D.M., both of which are under the ownership of American businessman John Textor.

Shaped by the revered Ghanaian football academy "Right to Dream," the dynamic young international striker, standing at 1.78 meters, showcases remarkable adaptability in various offensive positions.

Nuamah's football journey commenced at Danish first-division club Nordsjaelland in January 2022.

Swiftly making his mark on the professional stage, he notched a debut goal mere weeks after his inaugural official appearance.

The preceding season saw Nuamah's ascent, propelling him to clinch two distinguished awards in Denmark.

He secured the coveted title of Best Player of the Season and crowned himself as the Top Scorer in the Danish championship, boasting an impressive tally of 12 goals across 30 matches, complemented by 4 assists.
