Arne Slot, the Liverpool manager, has indicated that 17-year-old Rio Ngumoha may start against Paris Saint-Germain on Tuesday. This comes after Ngumoha's standout performance in the recent 2-0 win against Fulham, a victory that helped alleviate pressure on Slot. The win was critical as Liverpool had faced a series of disappointing results.

Ngumoha's influence was evident, particularly down the left flank, contributing to Liverpool's offensive resurgence. His first goal at Anfield, described as divine, broke the deadlock. Slot praised the teenager's unique ability to dominate one-on-one situations, likening his finish to that of Mohamed Salah and noting his recent increase in striking power during training sessions.
