Fulham had everything in place to sign winger Ernest Nuamah from French side Lyon… right up until he collapsed the deal by unhelpfully going missing.
The Cottagers perhaps should have been wary about the prospects of the deal when the 20-year-old broke down in tears during his medical, according to a report from French outlet L’Equipe. They pressed on regardless but, such was his pain at the thought of finalising the Craven Cottage switch, he disappeared at the critical moment, with even his agent unable to locate him to complete the paperwork.
