Bayern Munich Still Target Liverpool’s Rio Ngumoha

Bayern Munich are reportedly preparing another attempt to recruit Liverpool winger Rio Ngumoha, after a summer approach proved difficult to complete. The England international remains on their shortlist, with contact between the German club and his camp continuing.
Bayern Munich have not let go of their interest in Liverpool winger Rio Ngumoha. After a summer attempt proved too difficult to complete, the German club are reportedly prepared to try again, keeping the 18-year-old on their shortlist.
Ngumoha’s age and international experience make this a notable transfer storyline: he won his first of three England caps in the summer, when he was still 17. Bayern are also watching RB Leipzig winger Antonio Nusa, but the report describes the 21-year-old as a back-up option.
The key detail is that Bayern remain in contact with Ngumoha’s camp. That points to continuing interest, but the available information does not say a fresh offer has been made or that a move is close. For Liverpool, the immediate question is whether the German club’s renewed attention develops into a concrete approach.
Ngumoha is not the only Premier League-linked name in the wider transfer picture. Aston Villa goalkeeper Zion Suzuki is being monitored by several major clubs, including Arsenal, Manchester City, Liverpool and Tottenham Hotspur, alongside Real Madrid and Paris Saint-Germain. The report characterises Arsenal and City’s interest as a longer-term assessment rather than preparation for an immediate move.
Other reported watchlists include Manchester United and Tottenham tracking Nottingham Forest midfielder Morgan Gibbs-White, while Manchester United are also described as the most persistent Premier League pursuer of Como defender Jacobo Ramón. These remain reports of interest, not confirmed bids or completed deals.
For now, Ngumoha is the clearest headline: Bayern’s summer pursuit did not produce a transfer, but their attention has not faded. Whether that interest turns into a new attempt will be the next development to watch.
