Injury Knee
Est. Return 4/12/2026
Intensifies training before return
Nuamah (knee) is ramping up his training and working on his one-vs-one situations as he targets an April return, the club posted.
ANALYSIS
Nuamah has yet to feature this season following an ACL injury he suffered almost one year ago, but the increased training load and focus on individual drills suggest his return is drawing closer than ever. The forward will look to get some games under his belt upon his comeback to regain full fitness before competing for the starting role he hold before his setback.

Latest Fantasy Rumors
Everton showing interest
Everton are interested in signing Nuamah, according to Football Insider.
ANALYSIS
Everton could use another winger to bolster their depth in the final third, and Nuamah could be available for the right offer due to Lyon's financial problems. Other teams in the Premier League are expected to target Nuamah, though, so the Toffees might have competition for the services of the 21-year-old Ghanaian forward.
