Club career

Early years / Granada

Born in Neuilly-sur-Seine, France, Nyom only played amateur football in the country, competing in the reserves championship with AS Nancy-Lorraine and appearing for AC Arles-Avignon in the Championnat National. In the 2009 summer he was signed by Udinese Calcio in Italy,[2] being immediately loaned to Granada CF in Spain as part of the partnership agreement between both clubs.

Nyom quickly became an undisputed first-choice with the Andalusia side, helping it promote from Segunda División B to La Liga in just two seasons.[3] He made his debut in the latter competition on 27 August 2011, in a 0–1 home loss against neighbours Real Betis.[4]

Nyom renewed his contract with Udinese in late May 2013, but continued playing with Granada.[5] He scored his first and only goal in the Spanish top flight on 25 October 2014, putting the visitors ahead in a 1–1 draw at SD Eibar.[6]

Watford

On 14 July 2015, Nyom signed for newly promoted Premier League team Watford on a four-year contract from Udinese.[7] He made his debut on 8 August, starting in a 2–2 draw at Everton.[8]

International career

Nyom opted to represent Cameroon internationally, and gained his first cap on 11 November 2011 in a 3–1 friendly win with Sudan. He was selected by manager Volker Finke for his 2014 FIFA World Cup squad,[9] making his debut in the tournament on 23 June against Brazil as the Lions Indomptables were already eliminated from the knockout phase after two losses: he provided the cross for Joel Matip's equalizer shortly before the 30-minute mark, but the hosts eventually won 4–1.[10]
