Rio Ngumoha is destined to enjoy a bright future at Liverpool, but Stan Collymore has told GOAL why a loan move - potentially to Crystal Palace or Bournemouth - might form part of transfer plans in 2026. The 17-year-old wonderkid has enjoyed a breakthrough campaign at Anfield, but obvious questions are being asked of whether the youngster is ready to replace Mohamed Salah.
Liverpool captain Virgil van Dijk has thrown his support behind teenage sensation Rio Ngumoha, insisting the youngster would take a Champions League start against Paris Saint-Germain "in his stride". The 17-year-old has again become the talk of Merseyside after a record-breaking performance against Fulham over the weekend.
Liverpool head coach Arne Slot was full of praise for Rio Ngumoha following the youngster's breakthrough moment at Anfield.

The 17-year-old marked his latest start with a sublime solo goal that drew immediate comparisons to his legendary team-mate Mohamed Salah.
Andy Robertson has hailed Liverpool starlet Rio Ngumoha as "unbelievable" after the teenager ignored his instructions to score a stunning goal against Fulham. The veteran full-back admitted he was shouting for a pass on the overlap, but was more than happy to be proven wrong by the youngster's clinical finish at Anfield.
Liverpool legend Mohamed Salah may have scored on his first appearance at Anfield since announcing he'll be leaving the club at the end of the season, but teenage sensation Rio Ngumoha was the undoubted star of the show as the Reds recorded a morale-boosting 2-0 win over Fulham on Saturday afternoon that boosted their Champions League hopes - in every sense.
Virgil van Dijk calls on his Liverpool teammates to give “absolutely everything” in the final weeks of the season as the battle for Champions League qualification intensifies.
