Football/ OL: Ernesto Nuamah faces season-ending injury

1 month ago Alfrede Kankabo

Olympique Lyonnais confirmed devastating news Monday: winger Ernesto Nuamah suffered a torn ACL in his left knee just five minutes into Saturday’s match against Lille.

In an official statement, Lyon expressed full support for the Ghanaian international: “The club stands with Ernest and will ensure he receives the best care for his recovery.”

This cruel setback halts Nuamah’s promising momentum, ending his 2024-25 campaign prematurely with 6 goals and 2 assists across 33 appearances.

The 20-year-old had recently rediscovered his form, making the timing particularly harsh for both player and club.
