Former Liverpool players Jamie Carragher and Daniel Sturridge have called on manager Arne Slot to start 17‑year‑old Rio Ngumoha more often, citing his impact in Liverpool’s 1‑0 win over Nottingham Forest.
Slot has managed Ngumoha’s minutes carefully, giving him starts mainly in cup competitions, but the young winger’s 15‑minute spell turned the game in Liverpool’s favour, prompting the ex‑players’ plea.
