The promising talent made his league debut against Hearts of Oak on 11 October 2022 at age 13, 8 months and 30 days.

He replaced Douglas Owusu Ansah in the 62nd minute as the Fire Boys beat the Phobians 1-0 at Nana Agyeman Badu I Park.

Kyeremeh climbed off the bench to replace Richard Mpong in their fixture against Berekum Chelsea.

Nerie, who turned 14 on 12 December 2022, made two more appearances before the break-cameos against Legon Cities and Real Tamale United.
