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