Trey Nyoni has signed a new long-term contract with Liverpool.
The central midfielder turned 18 on Monday, and the new deal rewards the impression and impact he has made since his arrival from Leicester City in September 2023.
He signed his first professional contract in October 2024, having been training regularly with the senior squad.
Upon signing the new deal, the teenager said: “It means a lot, obviously supporting the club from young as well, so it’s a great feeling. Now I have to go out and show why I’ve earned this contract.
“It’s just step-by-step, day-by-day, just becoming better every day, improving as a player. I’m still young. You know, there’s a lot of improvement. That’s the most important thing.”
After impressive performances in several different age groups in Liverpool’s youth academy, Nyoni made his debut in the same campaign as a late substitute in the FA Cup fourth round victory over Southampton in February 2024, becoming the fourth youngest debutant in the club’s history.
He has also impressed head coach Arne Slot, as he was involved in pre-season and made five senior appearances last season — including in the Champions League against PSV, becoming the club’s youngest-ever player in a European competition (17 years and 213 days).
Nyoni has also represent England at every youth level from Under-16 to under-20. -New York Times
