Club career
Born in Santa Coloma de Farners, Girona, Catalonia to Gambian parents, Nuha represented CE Farners, CD Blanes, Penya Barcelonista de Lloret and CF Lloret as a youth.[1] He made his senior debut with the latter during the 2011–12 season, in the regional leagues.
On 26 June 2013, Nuha joined Segunda División B side UE Llagostera.[2] He was sparingly used during the campaign, but notably scored the winner in a 3–1 home defeat of Gimnàstic de Tarragona in the play-offs, which ensured his team's first-ever promotion to Segunda División.[3]
Nuha subsequently served loan stints at Tercera División sides UE Sant Andreu[4] and Elche CF Ilicitano,[5] scoring a career-best 21 goals for the latter. On 13 July 2016 he moved to another reserve team, CA Osasuna B in the third division.[6]
On 24 June 2017, Nuha signed for Atlético Saguntino still in the third division.[7] The following 17 May, he joined CD Castellón for the fourth tier play-offs,[8] and subsequently agreed to a deal with CD Atlético Baleares on 6 July.[9]
On 9 July 2019, Nuha agreed to a four-year deal with Racing de Santander, newly promoted to Segunda División.[10] On January 9, 2020 he was signed by Granada CF, which first sent him to the reserve team, Club Recreativo Granada.[11]
International career
Nuha has been called up for the Gambia national team on 6 February 2019.[12] He made his debut for the latter on 22 March, in an Africa Cup of Nations qualifier against Algeria.[13]
