E. Nuamah

Nuamah's 2026/27 season, read from the numbers

In 2026/27, E. Nuamah was used in rotation for Lyon in the Ligue 1: 4 appearances and 307 minutes, averaging 77 minutes per outing. The number that flatters him most is match rating — 414th of 702 attackers and inside the top 59%.

Per 90 minutes that is 0.9 goals per 90, 3.2 shots per 90 and 45% of his shots on target — the rate profile behind Nuamah's totals. Set against Nuamah's own record, 2026/27 reads differently: he has managed 16 in a season before, so 4 is well short of his own mark; he is playing far less than he once did — 668 minutes against 3087 at his peak; his average match rating has risen from 6.60 to 7.33 since 2025/26.

Our records cover 4 seasons of Nuamah's career, 2023/24 to 2026/27, across 3 clubs — FC Nordsjaelland, Lyon, Ghana. In that time he has played 90 matches across 8 competitions, 4,932 minutes in all. His best return on our records was 9 goals in 2023/24, from 41 appearances. He is 8 appearances into the current one.

Nuamah has 15 appearances in UEFA Europa Conference League, UEFA Europa League and UEFA Champions League on our records, and the gap is real: he is roughly 1.6 times more productive in Europe, 0.25 per 90 domestically against 0.40 in Europe. Away from his club, Nuamah has 9 appearances for Ghana on our records — across World Cup - Qualification Africa, Africa Cup of Nations and World Cup.

Treat these rates carefully. At 307 minutes — roughly 3 full matches — Nuamah is 593 short of our 900-minute qualifying floor, so he does not appear on the ranking boards: on a sample this size two good afternoons move a per-90 number further than a month of steady form.

How these scores are built, and the minutes and rating floors a player must clear to appear on our boards, are set out in our methodology.
