owever, a Norwegian club won the race to sign Nwokoma. He would join Lillestrøm SK after the 2022 season was over. Lillestrøm had a history of recruiting Nigerian players, of whom Nwokoma was compared to Mathew Ifeanyi.
He made his Lillestrøm debut in March 2023, in the postponed 2022 Norwegian cup match against Sogndal, and was an unused substitute in the 2022 Norwegian Football Cup final. He made his Eliteserien debut in April 2023 against Viking. Not entirely satisfied with the chances given to him in his first season, which impacted him mentally, Nwokoma vowed to be a stronger player in 2024. He missed several games from May to July as he was under scrutiny for a possible heart problem; also he lost his father in the same period.
On 15 March 2025, Charles moved to Sweden to play for Mjällby AIF on a loan-deal until 15 July 2025.
In March 2026, Aalesund announced that they had signed Charles on a two-year contract.
