Everton Football Club are reportedly setting their sights on Ghanaian winger Ernest Nuamah Appiah, with a potential offer in the works. If negotiations between Lyon and Everton go smoothly, Nuamah could make his way to the Premier League before the winter transfer window shuts.
The 21-year-old forward is anticipated to be the first major signing under the new ownership of The Friedkin Group. The club’s new owners are eager to bolster the squad as they prepare for the challenging second half of the season.
Nuamah has been on Everton’s radar for a while and nearly made the move to England during the summer transfer window. However, a deal with Fulham fell through on the final day of transfers. His impressive performances have continued to draw attention, making him a key target for the Toffees.
If the transfer goes through, Ernest Nuamah will join a growing list of Ghanaian talents in the Premier League, including Jordan Ayew, Mohammed Kudus, Antoine Semenyo, and Tariq Lamptey. This move not only boosts Everton’s attacking options but also enhances the visibility of Ghanaian players in one of the world’s most competitive football leagues.
For Ghana’s national team, the Black Stars, having another player in the Premier League presents an opportunity to showcase their talent on the global stage, further solidifying their presence in international football.
