Crystal Palace has joined Fulham and Everton in a fierce Premier League race to secure Olympique Lyonnais’ Ghanaian sensation, Ernest Nuamah, ahead of the January transfer window.
With Lyon battling to stave off relegation from Ligue 1, financial constraints are forcing the club to consider selling its prized 21-year-old winger.
Nuamah, who nearly moved to Fulham last summer before pulling out of the deal amid frustrations over Lyon’s handling of the transfer, now finds himself at the center of renewed interest. Despite making 13 appearances this season, the dynamic attacker has struggled for consistent game time, with head coach Pierre Sage opting for other offensive options.
Lyon, eager to ease their financial woes, are reportedly seeking to recover the €25m they invested in Nuamah. However, a Premier League bidding war might be Lyon’s best chance to maximize their returns.
As Crystal Palace intensifies its pursuit of the promising winger, Fulham and Everton are poised to reignite their interest, setting the stage for an enticing transfer saga this winter.
