Ngumoha Focused on New Liverpool Contract Amid Bayern Interest

Bayern Munich remain interested in Liverpool winger Rio Ngumoha, but the 17-year-old is focused on extending his stay at Anfield, transfer journalist Fabrizio Romano said on November 8, 2026. Talks between Liverpool and the player’s representatives are underway and progressing well, he said.

Romano distinguished Bayern’s interest from concrete negotiations, saying top clubs are drawn to highly rated young players. He said Liverpool did not consider selling Ngumoha last summer and did not enter negotiations over a transfer fee.

Liverpool’s priority is to secure a new, improved contract for the winger. Romano said the club wants to complete the deal as soon as possible, while Ngumoha’s playing time is also important to his development.

A full agreement could be reached as early as the upcoming international break. Bayern had considered signing Ngumoha over the summer before opting for Ismael Saibari, but Liverpool’s current focus is retaining the teenager.
