Ernest Nuamah Signs Permanent Deal With Olympique Lyon

Ernest Nuamah, a Ghanaian winger, has officially signed a permanent contract with Olympique Lyon, a French Ligue 1 team.

After agreeing to a 4-year contract, Nuamah—who is joining from Belgian Pro League team Molenbeek—will remain at Lyon until June 30, 2028.

Last season, Lyon loaned them the quick winger for €28.5 million in order to acquire his services.

Nuamah was hailed by the club in a statement posted on their website on Sunday, describing him as a dynamic, quick, and influential attacker.

The statement reads:

“A dynamic, fast, and impactful forward, Ernest Nuamah—who made his mark at Nordsjaelland in Denmark between January 2022 and August 2023 (49 matches / 20 goals)—has, through his performances, convinced his coach and club officials to extend his stay at OL.

“Possessing exceptional qualities and great potential for development, the 20-year-old Ghanaian international (11 caps) will resume training on Monday, July 8.”

Nuamah made 33 appearances for Lyon in both the French Cup and Ligue 1 last season, tallying two assists and three goals.

With eleven caps, Nuamah was instrumental in Ghana’s recent victories in the 2026 World Cup qualifying matches against Mali and the Central African Republic.

He will now travel with Olympique Lyonnais to complete his journey.
