One of the biggest game-time risers in the Ligue 1: on the pitch for 60% of Lyon's available minutes this season, up from 2% last year — a bench-to-starter jump the ratings will catch up with at the next checkpoint.

Squad depthWinger

E. Nuamah is a 23-year-old winger at Lyon, rated 62 overall by Field Insider's model. An emerging talent, he has been a fringe squad member this season (1.5% of available minutes). Below: strengths, watch-points, market-value outlook and the latest transfer news on Nuamah.

On the season, Nuamah graded 0 for current form (age-blind), on 0 goals and 0 assists in 3 appearances (0 involvements per 90).

Year-on-year, that's broadly in line with last season (Season 0 → 0). Over the 6 seasons on record his form has drifted down, peaking in 2022/23.

On long-term talent our Rating reads 62. At 23 Nuamah is still climbing toward his ceiling, and a market index of 36.2 reflects that trajectory.

Past his 2022/23 peak — the recent trend is downward, so buyers are paying for what's left, not what was.

0 goals in 3 appearances (0 per game) — light end product the role wants to see climb.

Strengths

  • Pedigree. Performing in a top-tier setting (team strength 88.4/100).

Watch points

  • Game time. Only 1.5% of available minutes — needs a settled run to prove the level.
  • Output. 0 contributions per 90 is light for an attacking role — end product needs to climb.

Outlook

Rated 62 overall — a strong, regular top-tier starter. In the final third he profiles as a work-in-progress on end product (0 goal contributions per 90). Approaching peak years; value is still building (price multiplier 2×) with the best seasons likely ahead. With this floor already at 23, the ceiling gets tested by a step up in level — one to track.
