Ipswich Town Nydam was born in
Zimbabwe and moved to England with his family when he was only 10, growing up in
Colchester. He became a schoolboy player with Ipswich Town in 2008, before signing a two-year scholarship at Town in July 2016, and then went on to sign his first two-year professional contract in November 2016. In November 2017, Nydam signed a new contract with Ipswich until 2021, with the option of an additional year extension. He made 20 appearances during his debut season for the Ipswich first-team. He made his debut for St Johnstone as a sub in a 2–1 away win over
Hamilton Academical on 1 September. Nydam found his first team chances limited during his loan spell in Scotland, only making 5 appearances before being recalled in January following the end of his loan deal.
Return to Ipswich Town Nydam made 1 substitute appearance for the first-team during the
2018–19 season after returning from loan in January, coming on as a substitute in a 0–2 loss away at
Brentford on 10 April 2019. On 10 April 2021, two years to the day since his last competitive appearance, Nydam made his return from injury as a second-half substitute in a home match against
Milton Keynes Dons. On 10 May 2021, Ipswich announced that Nydam would be released following the end of his contract. ==Retirement==
