Rio Ngumoha made a sensational Premier League debut, scoring an extraordinary last-minute winner for Liverpool on Monday.

The 16-year-old was handed his first top-flight appearance by Arne Slot against Newcastle.

Ngumoha joined Liverpool from Chelsea.

Despite his young age, Ngumoha has already started making a name for himself.

Slot invited him to participate in first-team training with Liverpool last Autumn before being included in a matchday squad for the first time during Liverpool's Carabao Cup encounter with Southampton in December.

Further cup opportunities followed for Ngumoha when he made his debut in an FA Cup victory over Accrington Stanley.

His form continued with a goal against Newcastle, making him Liverpool's youngest Premier League scorer.

He ranks as the fourth youngest scorer in competition history, following James Vaughan, James Milner, and Wayne Rooney, and he is only the second 16-year-old to score a winning goal, joining the Manchester United legend.

What's been said.

Chelsea icon John Terry endorsed the teenager for future greatness, having expressed his disappointment that his former side allowed the talent to escape their grasp.

Responding to Ngumoha's announcement that he had joined Liverpool, Terry commented: "Good luck mate," before adding: "This boy is and will be a top top player."
