Journalist Lewis Steel is convinced that signing a new contract for Ryo Ngumo with Liverpool is merely a question of time. The 18-year-old winger has set his sights on staying at Anfield.
The young talent delivered a stellar performance in the Champions League victory against Villarreal, catching the eye of Europe's top clubs with his exploits.
Ngumo's current deal is in place until June 2028, and insider Fabrizio Romano has previously confirmed that the club is actively discussing an extension.
Responding to fan queries in the Daily Mail, Steel provided fresh insights into Ngumo's contractual situation.
The agent of the 18-year-old player is in talks with Liverpool regarding an extension, and fans have no cause for concern.
Ngumo is on track to secure a new deal (which currently runs until 2028), and sources close to the player revealed a month ago to Confidential that he loves the club and is eager to commit his long-term future to it.
It seems to be a matter of when, not if, despite interest from Arsenal, Bayern Munich, and other European sides.
This season, Ngumo has been granted plenty of game time, featuring in 9 of Andoni Iraola's 11 matches. The anticipated new contract is expected to come with a significant salary increase, marking a big win for sporting director Julian Ward.
