Reports from Ghanasoccernet suggest that French powerhouse Lyon has successfully secured a deal to acquire the services of Ghana's rising young talent, Ernest Nuamah, from Danish club Nordsjaelland.

The 19-year-old sensation is expected to travel to France today to undergo his medical examination, with the completion of the process and his official inclusion in Lyon's roster anticipated by Tuesday.

Despite attracting interest from prominent names such as PSG, Tottenham, and Dortmund, among other English clubs, Nuamah has ultimately chosen Lyon as his next destination.

The terms of the transfer fee have been agreed upon, and Nuamah has also come to an agreement regarding his personal contract.

Nordsjaelland will also be entitled to a percentage of any future sale involving Nuamah from Lyon, as part of the deal.

Following in the footsteps of his legendary compatriot Michael Essien, who once played for Lyon before making a record move to Chelsea, Nuamah's journey is highly anticipated.

During the previous season, the highly-rated youngster showcased his prowess by contributing 15 goals and 4 assists across 34 matches in various competitions.

The teenager's remarkable performance in the 2022-23 season earned him three distinguished accolades: Young Player of the Year, Best Player for Spring (voted by coaches), and Player of the Season (voted by players).

Starting the 2023-24 season on a strong note, Nuamah already secured a hat-trick in the opening league match and was subsequently named the best player and best young player for the month of July.

Nuamah made his debut on the senior stage recently, emerging as a substitute during Ghana's encounter with Madagascar in the 2023 Africa Cup of Nations qualifiers held in Antananarivo.

Furthermore, he was an essential part of the Ghanaian team during the U23 Africa Cup of Nations held in Morocco, where he contributed one goal in three matches.
