Laurent Blanc, manager of Olympique Lyon, confirmed that Ghana international Ernest Nuamah will be presented this week ahead of his move from FC Nordsjaelland.
After flying to France with his management from Denmark, the Ghanaian completed his medical exams and all other paperwork last week.
The 19-year-old has missed Nordsjaelland’s last three games in all competitions as he approaches his much-anticipated move.
The only thing lacking from the deal is the official announcement, but Blanc has downplayed fears of a breakdown, revealing that the forward is already in Lyon.
“He’s already in Lyon. I think [this] week he’ll officially be a Lyon player,” the French manager said when asked about the 19-year-old after the league game against OGC Nice on Sunday evening.
“He is a player that will bring what he’s capable of bringing. He is a player with a lot of power. He is a young player, a very young player, but he also brings us a bit of competition. Bringing competition to every position is a good thing for everyone. The more competition, the better things will be.”
