Rio Ngumoha

Rio Ngumoha is the youngest goalscorer in Liverpool FC history.He arrived at the Reds' Academy in September 2024 having previously been on the books of Chelsea.A lively left-sided forward, who can play anywhere across the front line, he featured for the U18s, U19s and U21s during 2024-25.

He was also handed his senior debut by Arne Slot when he started against Accrington Stanley in the FA Cup in January 2025.Ngumoha netted his first goal for the club during the U18s' 3-2 win over his former side Chelsea in the Premier League Cup.

He followed that up with two fine strikes - his first at Premier League 2 level - for the U21s in a 2-2 draw away to Aston Villa.After impressing in pre-season ahead of 2025-26, Ngumoha made his Premier League debut as a substitute away at Newcastle United in the August.And it was an historic bow as the attacker found the target in the 100th minute at St.

James' Park to secure a 3-2 win, becoming the youngest LFC scorer ever, aged 16 years and 361 days.A few weeks later, Ngumoha became the youngest player in the club's history to appear in European competition (aged 17 years and 19 days) when he came off the bench in a 3-2 win over Atletico Madrid in the Champions League.In late September 2025, he put pen to paper on a first professional contract with the Reds.
