Ghanaian winger Ernest Nuamah has taken a major step toward his long-awaited return to competitive football after resuming ball work in training, following a ten-month absence caused by an anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) injury.
The 21-year-old has been sidelined since undergoing surgery last year, a setback that halted his momentum at both club and international level. After months of rehabilitation and recovery, Nuamah is now back on the pitch, working with the ball and gradually rebuilding match fitness with his club, Olympique Lyonnais.
According to sources close to the player’s camp, Nuamah is expected to return to competitive action between mid and late March, provided he continues to respond positively to training demands. His comeback is eagerly anticipated by Lyon supporters and Ghana fans alike, with the winger’s pace, creativity, and attacking flair seen as vital assets. If fully fit, Nuamah could play a key role in the decisive stages of the season and strengthen Ghana’s options ahead of the world cup.
