Meanwhile, Senegalese forward Bamba Dieng's future at Marseille is also in doubt, leaving the French club in search of a new forward.

Nuamah, a product of the famous Right to Dream Academy in Ghana, has been in fine form for Nordsjaelland this season, scoring five goals and providing four assists in 17 games.

The teen sensation has played a key role as Nordsjaelland sit top of the league table in Denmark.

He has been identified as the next big player to emerge from the Danish club, following the footsteps of Mohammed Kudus and Kamaldeen Sulemana.

Ernest Nuamah makes Nordsjaelland debut

Earlier, Sports Brief reported that 19-year-old Ghanaian forward Ernest Nuamah marked his long-awaited debut for Danish side FC Nordsjælland with a goal against Aarhus.

Nuamah was introduced to the game in the second half and made an instant impression with a goal as the Tigers were held to a 2-2 draw with Aarhus.

It was Albert Gronbaek who broke the game's deadlock for the away side after 39 minutes to give Aarhus the advantage at halftime.

Kudus scores in Ajax draw

Ghana's World Cup star, Mohammed Kudus is back on the scorers sheet after netting a stunning goal to rescue a point for Ajax against FC Volendam.

The 22-year-old came off the bench to score with ten minutes remaining as the game ended 1-1 at the Johan Cryuff Arena.

The relegation threatened Volendam had taken the lead just before the hour mark through Damon Mirani.
