Career

Nouble started his career in the Youth systems at Chelsea and Millwall before being offered a scholarship by Dagenham & Redbridge in November 2011 and joined the club's academy programme in June 2012. [3] In the summer of 2013 he featured in two pre-season friendlies for the first team before joining Isthmian League Division One North side Thurrock on work experience in August. [4] He scored on his debut with the equaliser in the 3–1 defeat to AFC Sudbury. [5] Two weeks later he scored the first in the 5–1 win over Harlow Town. [5] His final goal of the loan spell came in a 3–0 win over Felixstowe & Walton United in the FA Cup. [5] Nouble returned to the Daggers in September having made eleven appearances scoring three goals. [5]

In November 2013, he joined Isthmian League Premier Division side Grays Athletic on loan. [6] He made his debut for the club in the victory over Tilbury in the Isthmian League Cup, coming on as a substitute for Jeff Hammond and scoring with only his second touch. [7] His first goal in the league came in a 3–2 defeat to Dulwich Hamlet. [7] He scored in the 3–3 draw with Chatham Town as Grays progressed through to the semi-finals of the Isthmian League Cup on penalties. [7] He scored his first ever brace in the 4–2 home league win over Lewes. [7] He scored his first penalty in the 2–1 away win at AFC Hornchurch. He went on to score in the 2–2 draw with Harrow Borough. [7] He scored the equaliser in the 1–1 draw away at Lowestoft Town with a penalty. [7] His final goal of his loan spell came in April 2014, a 3–2 away win over Hendon. [7] He returned to the Daggers later that month having made thirty-two appearances, scoring nine goals. [7]

In April 2014, Nouble was offered his first professional contract with Dagenham, signing a one-year contract. [8] He made his debut for the Daggers in May 2014, coming on as a substitute for Blair Turgott in the 3–2 away win over Cheltenham Town. [9] [10] He was also later voted the Dagenham & Redbridge Academy Player of the Year award for the 2013–14 season. [11] In August 2014, he joined Conference Premier side Welling United on a one-month loan, having found it difficult to break into the first team despite featuring in pre-season friendlies. [12] He made his debut for the club in a 1–1 draw with Woking, replacing Afolabi Obafemi as a substitute. [13] In September 2014, his loan was extended with the club for a further month. [14] He was recalled from his loan by Dagenham in November 2014, having made thirteen appearances for the club. [15] He subsequently joined Conference South side St Albans City on an initial one-month youth loan. [16] He scored his only goal for the club in a 3–2 home defeat to Farnborough. [17] He returned to Dagenham in December 2014, having made seven appearances in all competitions for the club. [17] Later in the month he returned on loan to former side Thurrock of the Isthmian League Division One North for an initial one month. [17] He made his second debut for the club against Heybridge Swifts in a 1–0 defeat. [18] He scored in the 3–0 away win over Cray Wanderers with a delicate chip, in which turned out to be his final game of the loan spell, having made three appearances. [18] In January 2015, he moved out on loan again to former club Grays Athletic of the Isthmian League Premier Division on a one-month youth loan. [19] Nouble was released by Dagenham at the end of the 2014–15 season. [20]

In July 2016, he joined National League South side Bishop's Stortford on a free transfer having suffered over a year with injuries since his release from Dagenham. [21] Later that season he re-joined Grays Athletic. [22] Nouble spent the 2017-18 season with Thurrock, leaving the club at the end of the season when they folded, before initially joining Tonbridge Angels in May 2018. [23] However, the move was called off before the start of the coming season due to his personal circumstances. [24] Nouble instead signed for Haringey Borough, and after 18 goals in the 2018-19 season, move up a division to join Concord Rangers the following summer. [25] In July 2020 he progressed up a level again to join Aldershot Town. [26]

In July 2021, Nouble signed for Livingston on a two-year deal with an option for a third. He then immediately joined Arbroath on a season-long loan. [27] Nouble was recalled from loan in the January 2022 transfer window. [28]

Following his departure from Livi, Nouble signed for Wuxi Wugo in June 2024. [29] He scored twice in 15 appearances for Wuxi in the 2024 season, as they were relegated from League One. [30] [31]

After Wuxi were relegated, Nouble announced on Instagram that he had moved to Shenzhen Juniors, who were newly promoted to League One. [32]

In February 2026, Nouble returned to Scottish Premiership club Livingston on a short-term deal until the end of the season. [33]
