Ghanaian winger Ernest Nuamah sustained an injury during Olympique Lyon’s clash with AS Monaco on Saturday.
Nuamah, 23, was in the starting lineup for Lyon’s French Ligue 1 match at the Parc Olympique Lyonnais. However, his involvement was cut short as he was substituted in the 18th minute, with Georges Mikautadze taking his place due to the injury.
Following Nuamah’s exit, Lyon struggled to find their footing and eventually suffered a 2-0 defeat to Monaco. This loss leaves them at the bottom of the league table, still without a point after two games in the 2024/25 season.
The severity of Nuamah’s injury remains unclear, but it is expected that he will be unavailable for Ghana’s upcoming 2025 Africa Cup of Nations (AFCON) qualifiers against Angola and Niger in September.
