According to a report from Sky Germany’s Florian Plettenberg, Bayern Munich’s potential deal for Liverpool FC winger Rio Ngumoha has already fallen through. In fact, it might have been killed on Thursday before all of the information leaked out:
🚨❌ The deal between FC Bayern and Rio Ngumoha already collapsed yesterday (despite a verbal agreement) because it was clear behind the scenes that Liverpool would NOT sell the player.
However, there were phone calls, meetings and direct talks between Vincent
Kompany/Ngumoha. As also reported by @David_Ornstein, Ngumoha became Bayern’s primary target once the Anthony Gordon deal began to collapse. #LFC
Bayern are now focused on two transfers: Nathaniel Brown and Ismael Saibari. If both deals go through, it’s very likely that NO additional left winger will be signed, as both players are capable of playing in that position. @SkySportDE
This rumor came in like a rocket and exited like one as well. It appears that Bayern Munich was all-in on the move and had support — even talking to Ngumoha, but Liverpool is intent not to sell.
For now, the issue appears to be dead.
