Liverpool wonderkid Rio Ngumoha exploded onto the scene with his match-winner against Newcastle and off the pitch he's also hit the next level.
In the new Topps Premier League 2026 set his autographed cards are now regularly breaking the £1,000-mark on eBay as collectors bank on him being the next big thing.

One Ngumoha card, which is one of only 10, and features his signature went for £1,529.43 at the end of August as the hype around the 17-year-old builds.
And this figure could go even higher with Topps now launching their Hobby Box for the set that has been flying off the shelves.
The new premium purchase offers collectors even more bang for their buck with exclusive cards not available in retail pack.

They could also have a Perfect Storm card, which drops once in every four cases and is set to be a high-end hunt for the most fervent collectors.
