Ernest Nuamah, who had his transfer to Fulham derailed last summer, will have difficulty softening the Lyon leaders this winter given the situation of OL.
First major recruit of the John Textor version of OL in January 2023, Ernest Nuamah fails to meet expectations. Despite great physical qualities, the accuracy is not there and that is not forgiving in Ligue 1. Result, faced with the offensive traffic jam at the start of the season, the Ghanaian was pushed towards the exit. Despite his reluctance, the player revealed in Denmark ended up agreeing to sign for Fulham to allow OL to make a big sale. But at the bottom of the hole and in tears, Nuamah finally skipped the medical examination to stay at OL, in front of managers and agents sawn by this unexpected turn of events.
Nuamah does not impose himself on OL!
Six months later, the refrain will resume but with a probably different outcome. This time, OL no longer really have a choice given their economic situation and must part with several players with high market value. The Black Star is one of them and Everton is already in the running to recover the Lyon winger. The site specializing in Liverpool club news, Goodison News, affirms that the Toffees, who were also eager to recover Nuamah last summer, will quickly return to action to strengthen themselves in their fight to stay in Premier League. Enough to quickly do business with John Textor, who admitted needing several sales to get out of the red financially. And for once, this would have the merit of not weakening OL too much, Ernest Nuamah having still not managed to become an essential pawn in the Lyon attack in recent weeks.
It remains to be known the position of the player, who seemed very reluctant about the idea of leaving the Rhône last summer, but who will certainly have to make up his mind about his sporting future given the urgency of the situation, and especially the means that he does not impose himself at all on OL.
