Ngumoha left Chelsea after eight years in the Blues' academy to join Liverpool in the summer of 2024.

Speaking to The Telegraph about his decision to join the Reds, the 18-year-old said (via LFC Transfer Room on X), “I feel like I needed a new challenge.

"I feel like if I stayed at Chelsea, I’m not saying that I would not have got to the first team as quick, because I believe in my ability, but I feel like Liverpool just gave me a new pathway.

"For me, it was a no-brainer going to Liverpool," he said.

Ngumoha's current contract with Liverpool will expire in 2028.
