Liverpool are pushing hard to agree a new deal with their attacking sensation, Rio Ngumoha, amidst interest from Bayern Munich.
Following a sensational rise, Rio Ngumoha has attracted considerable interest from across Europe. While there is a significant amount of time left on his current deal, his future has become a massive talking point amidst interest from Bayern Munich.
According to Pete O’Rourke via Football Insider, Liverpool are worried about his future and will look to tie him down to a new deal once he turns 18, as there have been suggestions that the German giants have agreed personal terms with the teenager and will look to secure his services.

Liverpool to push for a new deal for Rio Ngumoha
While speaking about the English youth internationals’ future, O’Rourke said, “Obviously Liverpool are not planning to lose Rio Ngumoha any time soon. He’s seen as a huge star for the future for the Anfield club.
“He’s under contract until 2028, but I think Liverpool’s officials will be very keen to sit down with Ngumoha’s representatives and try and thrash out a new deal when he turns 18 in a few months.
“Liverpool are obviously unhappy with this suggestion that Bayern Munich have agreed personal terms with the player to try and get a deal done.”
Ngumoha was officially promoted to the Reds’ first team last summer, but he had already been playing first-team football. While he is widely regarded as one of the brightest prospects in English football and Liverpool considers him an integral part of their long-term plans, his future has been up in the air following a season where he was underused by Arne Slot.
