Ghana international Ernest Nuamah
Target of Matthieu Louis-Jean, Ernest Nuamah has finally been made official by OL. The Ghanaian winger was bought by Molenbeek but is on loan for one season.
In the current slump, theOL finally manages to be attractive on the transfer market. Despite the constraints of the DNCG and a very complicated start to the championship (zero points in two games), the Lyon club managed to convince one of the best prospects in his position in Europe to join the capital of Gaul. Arrived last Tuesday in Lyon, Ernest nuamah had successfully passed his medical examination but had to wait before committing to theOL. Faced with the wait, some had begun to question this arrival, but Laurent White had reassured everyone after the draw (0-0) at Nice.
Due to the decisions of the DNCG, the Ghanaian officially joined RWD Molenbeek but was immediately loaned to the Lyon club. A mandatory purchase option was slipped into the loan and Norsdjaelland will receive 25 million euros (+ 5 million bonus) from Molenbeek this summer. In twelve months, the winger will become the most expensive recruit in the history of the Rhone club. With the record signing of Ernest Nuamah, OL have a new winger in their squad.
This reinforcement was one of the priorities given to Matthieu Louis-Jean in this summer transfer window with that of the defensive midfielder. At 19 years old, nuamah adds a little more youth to the Lyon group, but represents on paper a very big draw. Tracked by some big names in Europe (PSG or Tottenham), the Ghanaian international must bring speed and power to the Lyon wings. The expectations are in any case high, it is up to Nuamah to confirm them on the field even if there is still a very young player.
