Rio Ngumoha is set to sign his first professional contract with Liverpool. |
This salary is far less than the £300,000 per week that Mohamed Salah or Florian Wirtz (£200,000 per week) receive at Liverpool. However, the new professional contract promises a significant increase in income for the 16-year-old player.
The Athletic reports that Ngumoha could see his current earnings increase by more than 20 times in his first professional contract with Liverpool, reaching £25,000 per week. This is a well-deserved bonus for Ngumoha given his impressive performances in the first team recently.
This salary is even higher than the £20,000/week that Kobbie Mainoo is currently receiving at Manchester United. Mainoo is four years older than Ngumoha and made his Manchester United first-team debut two years earlier than his younger teammate.
Ngumoha will officially sign a professional contract on his 17th birthday (August 29th). |
Ngumoha will officially sign a professional contract on his 17th birthday (August 29th). According to regulations in England, clubs are not allowed to sign professional contracts until a player is 17 years old, and this requires written consent from a parent or legal guardian.
Ngumoha is receiving a lot of attention this season, having made history in Liverpool's 3-2 victory over Newcastle in the second round of the Premier League. In the 10th minute of added time in the second half, Ngumoha – who had just made his Premier League debut – scored with a spectacular curling shot that left goalkeeper Nick Pope with no chance.
With this goal, Ngumoha became the fourth youngest player to score in Premier League history, behind only James Vaughan, James Milner, and Wayne Rooney. Ngumoha also became the second youngest player in the Premier League to score a match-winning goal, also behind Rooney.
