Olympique Lyon forward Ernest Nuamah is brimming with confidence after scoring his first goal of the season in Lyon’s thrilling 3-2 victory over Eintracht Frankfurt on Thursday in the Europa League.
The 21-year-old’s decisive strike in the 54th minute sealed the win in a pulsating encounter. Nuamah, who has been limited to just seven starts this season, expressed his delight at breaking his scoring duck and is optimistic about earning more opportunities.
“I needed this so much, and I have been working hard for this,” Ernest Nuamah said. “I was out at the beginning of the season, then I came back into the squad. I’m so happy and proud to score my first goal, and hopefully more will follow.”
Nuamah’s performance comes after a frustrating start to the season, including a failed deadline-day move to Fulham. The talented forward has since been linked with a January transfer to the Premier League, heightening speculation about his future.
As Lyon continues their campaign, Nuamah’s resurgence could prove pivotal in the months ahead.
