Bayer Leverkusen are closing on in a deal to sign this centre-back from Liverpool. By Ravi Kumar Jha Published on June 20, 2025, 08:24 IST
Bayer Leverkusen are closing on in a deal to sign this centre-back from Liverpool as personal terms have been agreed. Leverkusen showed great interest in Liverpool's Jarell Quansah and started the negotiations process as soon as the window opened. According to Fabrizio, the deal is very close and it will be around €30 million plus add ons for the centre-back.
Bayer Leverkusen are on the verge of completing a deal to sign Liverpool centre-back Jarell Quansah, with personal terms already agreed, according to renowned transfer expert Fabrizio Romano.
Leverkusen, fresh off a historic Bundesliga-winning campaign, identified Quansah as a top defensive target early in the transfer window and quickly initiated talks with Liverpool. The German club have been pushing to bolster their backline as they prepare for a challenging season ahead, including their return to the UEFA Champions League.
The deal is expected to be worth around €30 million plus add-ons, making it a significant investment by Leverkusen for the 21-year-old defender, who impressed during his breakout season with the Reds.
Quansah's blend of composure, aerial dominance, and passing ability has caught the eye of several European clubs, but it is Leverkusen who appear to have won the race for his signature.

Football transfer rumours: Liverpool move for Guéhi? Rashford to Newcastle?

Marcus Rashford's future is very much in the 'up in the air' category. The chances of him ever playing for Manchester United look slim-to-none as he will not be given a boarding pass for the club's US tour, while a dream move to Barcelona is going up in smoke. A few Serie A clubs have had a sniff but his wages might be a stumbling block. What he really needs is a Champions League club with plenty of cash. Step in … Newcastle. The Magpies are back in the bigger time next season, will be eager to make a statement signing or two, and Rashford fits the bill. Liam Delap chose Chelsea over Newcastle and Eddie Howe likes to have the best English talent at his disposal, so Rashford would be an ideal candidate as an extra attacking option. It takes a brave man to move from Liverpool to Everton (and vice versa). Nick Barmby, Abel Xavier and Gary Ablett did the Merseyside double in their time and the next potential candidate is Ben Doak. The Scottish teenager impressed on loan in the Championship last season at Middlesbrough and is ready to step up to the Premier League but there is no obvious role he can play under Arne Slot. It means Doak might need to find an alternative and at least this one means he will not have to move house.

He is currently playing for England at the European Under-21 Championships but that is not stopping talking going on in the background with Bayer Leverkusen over a summer move. The Germans are not short of cash having sold Jeremie Frimpong and – imminently – Florian Wirtz to Anfield. Said cash splashing is not coming to an end for Slot, who also wants Crystal Palace skipper Marc Guéhi to bolster his centre-back options. A year ago the defender was subject to bids from Newcastle but £65m was deemed insufficient and the Eagles are unlikely to have dropped their price. Burnley are seeking some extra quality now they are back in the promised land. One potential incoming is the Lazio winger Loum Tchaouna who could head from Rome to Turf Moor in a deal worth in the vicinity of £12m.

Despite the fact at least one those forwards will depart this summer, the Brazilian could also be allowed to leave with Besiktas contemplating a move for the former Club Brugge man. Speaking of those who could swap London for Istanbul, José Mourinho is eager to bring Thomas Partey to Fenerbahce for absolutely nothing. The midfielder's contract is days away from expiring and the club and player have failed to agree a new one, leaving him free to leave. Napoli are eager to add to Kevin De Bruyne in midfield and are targeting Brighton's Matt O'Riley. The Danish international has been the subject of a £26m bid from the Italian champions.

Liverpool lose star midfielder due to BIZARRE twist

Liverpool are planning to be fit and raring to go for the start of their title defence in August. Transfer moves are being completed over these next few months and in July, the players will reconvene for a pre-season tour of Japan before building up their training for the new season. Advertisement New tactical blueprints will have been created by Arne Slot over the summer and he will be desperately hoping that he has a full squad of players to choose from when August rolls around. However, one player has been confirmed to be unavailable for the start of the season already and it's nothing to do with their fitness. A bizarre part of the Premier League rolls prohibits his participation. © IMAGO Ryan Gravenberch to miss the season opener On Wednesday June 19, the date that every football fan has in their diary rolled around - it was Premier League fixture release day, allowing fans to theorise how difficult their team's chances of winning the title might be, depending on a tough start, a tough run-in or strategic fixture choices. Advertisement In our own world, the fact that you would play a rival at home or away first makes an enormous difference as to whether the team will have enough momentum to come away with a win. First up for the reigning Champions is Bournemouth, who will be visiting Anfield on Friday 15th August, which should ordinarily be a straightforward start. The Cherries will be missing Dean Huijsen, and supposedly Milos Kerkez and Illia Zabarnyi from their defensive ranks due to transfers. However, Gravenberch will be absent from the Reds, despite his long-term commitment to the side. Of course, you will be asking, 'how can this be?'. Well, it's because he got a red card during our last game of the season against Crystal Palace, and while yellow cards don't carry over, red ones do. Advertisement The challenge he put in was deemed 'a professional last man foul' which might otherwise be known as 'denial of an obvious goal-scoring opportunity' (DOGSO) which is a one match ban according to the FA as supposed to 'serious foul play' or 'violent conduct' which incur more serious suspensions. You might also now be thinking, 'can't he serve it during the Community Shield?', and the answer to that is sadly no, he can't. Had there have been an FA Cup game to be played prior to the season, then potentially this could've avoided it, but the powers that be have decided that this can't happen. As such, he will be missing the Bournemouth game indefinitely and Slot will have to plan for his absence accordingly. Although we have been aware that he would be missing the opening game of the season for some time; the specific opponent was unknown, however. Now we know the damage. Generally speaking this shouldn't be a problem. While the Dutchman was incredibly impressive last season, the squad has more than enough to cover him. But it just goes to show, one error to try and make sure the team didn't finish the season with a loss, has left us a man-short to start off with again.
