Overview

• Liverpool confirmed the winger’s first professional deal, finalized after he became eligible at 17 late last month.
• Ngumoha moved from Chelsea in 2024, with compensation yet to be agreed and expected to be determined by a Premier League tribunal.
• He vaulted into the senior picture with a pre-season breakthrough, an FA Cup debut in early 2025, and a stoppage-time Premier League winner at Newcastle that made him the club’s youngest ever goalscorer.
• He has since featured in the Champions League and is viewed as genuine cover on the left wing as Liverpool prioritize his pathway over a new signing.
• Arne Slot has praised his finishing, and despite the new deal the teenager is understood to be on modest initial wages consistent with the club’s academy-to-first-team structure.
