Rio Ngumoha Commits Future To Liverpool With New Contract Until 2028

Liverpool have secured the future of their brightest young talent, Rio Ngumoha, with a professional contract until June 2028. The 17-year-old winger, who joined from Chelsea’s academy last summer, has already made a mark under Arne Slot with a rare FA Cup start at 16, a Champions League debut against Atlético Madrid, and a stunning 110th-minute Premier League winner at Newcastle.

The agreement, finalized this week, cements Ngumoha’s role in Liverpool’s long-term project. A tribunal to determine Chelsea’s compensation is ongoing, but the focus is on his dazzling potential. With pace, flair, and big-moment mentality, the teenager is a key part of Slot’s vision as the Reds chase silverware.

Ngumoha’s inclusion in the UCL squad, thanks to a new UEFA rule, shows the faith Liverpool have in him. Could he be the next Anfield icon? Fans are buzzing, and 2026 might just be his year to shine.
