Liverpool set to announce new deal for left-winger | OneFootball

Liverpool are set to announce a new contract for their exciting left-winger very soon.

At this moment in time, Arne Slot has a lot of options to choose from in attack. He begins pre-season with the likes of Federico Chiesa, Darwin Nunez and Luis Diaz still at the club.

Ben Doak is also involved with the first team, and he's expected to be given a chance to prove himself.

On top of that, there is also Mohamed Salah, Florian Wirtz and Cody Gakpo who can play in the attacking positions.

As Liverpool prepare to face Preston North End it's going to be interesting to see how Slot navigates his options. It remains to be seen what the future holds for the trio of Diaz, Nunez and Chiesa.

The latter two are more likely to leave than to stay at the club at this present moment. And that could be a golden opportunity for another young star.

We're talking about Rio Ngumoha of course. The 16-year-old has already made his first-team debut, dazzling his opponents against Accrington Stanley with some mesmerising moves.

Ngumoha is one of the best talents in England, and it was a major coup when the Reds lured him from Chelsea's grasp last summer.

Now, a year on from that coup, Ngumoha has continued his development at the club. He's made great strides and has established himself as one of the best players in the club's U21 team.

His incredible dribbling ability has also caught the eye at first team level. Anfield Watch revealed exclusively that the club's media department has been forced to delete footage of Ngumoha in first team training in a bid to control the hype around him.

This summer will present him further opportunities to establish himself in the first team. It's expected Ngumoha will be part of Liverpool's tour to Asia.

And it looks like that's not the only significant step that he's about to take in his career. According to David Lynch speaking on his YouTube channel, Ngumoha is also expected to sign his first professional contract with the club, which is expected to be announced very 'soon' when he turns 17-years-old next month.

This will be a reward for Ngumoha's form, and it's another step in the right direction.

Ngumoha has a very good chance of becoming a future first team player. Now he just needs to keep his head down and continue his development.

The next couple of years will make or break his career and at Liverpool he will be in an environment where the club will give him every opportunity to realise his full potential.
