He got off to a sensational start with the team in the beginning of 2009.[5]

In summer 2011, after having already played two league matches for Luzern in the 2011–12 season, Lukmon agreed to a one-year loan deal to play for SC Kriens in the Swiss Challenge League. At SC Kriens in the 2011–12 season he played 13 times in total for the club while on loan
