What happened. Arsenal hold genuine interest in signing Liverpool winger Rio Ngumoha, but Liverpool have reportedly issued a hands-off warning and have no plans to entertain offers. Liverpool also want to agree a new contract with the teenager, and no deal is advanced.

• Ngumoha joined Liverpool from Chelsea in 2024 and signed a three-year deal 12 months ago.
• He has made 35 senior appearances and started Tuesday's Carabao Cup win over Tottenham.
• Arsenal are monitoring whether his minutes drop after Bradley Barcola and Victor Munoz arrived.

Ngumoha has two years left on his current deal, so Liverpool's next move is a new contract.
