According to Football Transfer expert, Fabrizio Romano, both Fulham and Everton have approached the French giants for the forward.
It is however unclear if he would be joining any of the clubs on loan, having just made his move to France a permanent one.
Nuamah has featured in the two opening games of Lyon in Ligue 1 this season but was forced off after just 18 minutes of the game against AS Monaco.
Nuamah relishes a dream move to England
Despite being in Europe for a little over three years, the talented forward has made a huge mark at the clubs he has featured for. During his time in the Danish Superliga with FC Nordsjaelland, Nuamah won the Player of the Season with his performances in the league, as reported by My Joy Online.
He began to attract interest from clubs across Europe with teams from England also showing interest but he eventually joined Lyon on an initial loan deal.
With Lyon struggling in the league last season, the youngster played a pivotal role in their strong finish to the campaign, helping them secure a European-place finish.
However, his dream of playing in the English Premier League might soon become a reality following interest from Fulham and Everton.
