Trey Nyoni has signed a new long-term contract with Liverpool, committing his future to the club on his 18th birthday, June 30, 2025[1][5]. The promising midfielder has impressed head coach Arne Slot and the Liverpool staff during preseason tours and has drawn significant praise for his technical abilities and creativity in tight spaces[1]. His performances have kept him firmly in Liverpool’s plans despite recent academy changes[2].

Nyoni featured prominently in Liverpool’s latest preseason, including matches during the Hong Kong tour and a friendly against AC Milan, where he continued to impress coaches and teammates alike[3][7]. Club veteran Andy Robertson recently praised both Nyoni and fellow youngster Rio Ngumoha after their appearances in the AC Milan friendly, highlighting the bright future both hold with Liverpool and emphasizing their improvement with every opportunity to play with the first team[3].

His early career milestones are notable: signed from Leicester City in 2023, he quickly progressed through the U18 and U21 squads, and made his senior debut in a 3-0 FA Cup win over Southampton in February 2024 at just 16 years and 243 days—making him the fourth-youngest debutant in the club’s history[1][5]. Nyoni subsequently became Liverpool’s youngest player to appear in a European competition, coming on as a substitute against PSV Eindhoven[3][5].

During Liverpool’s pre-season USA tour in 2024, Nyoni scored in a friendly versus Sevilla, further strengthening his reputation as a dynamic, attack-minded midfielder[1][5]. His continued presence and performances during the current 2025 preseason have been lauded by both coaches and fellow players.

Looking ahead, while neither Nyoni nor Ngumoha are expected to play major roles this coming season, their ongoing development and the support from senior players like Robertson indicate that they remain central to Liverpool’s long-term plans[3].
