Liverpool looking for reinforcements in the backline; this PL centre-back is highly appreciated
Liverpool's Jarell Quansah is all set to Leave the side after the personal terms agreed with Bayer Leverkusen. By Ravi Kumar Jha Published on June 20, 2025, 18:53 IST Liverpool's Jarell Quansah is all set to Leave the side after the personal terms agreed with Bayer Leverkusen. As soon as the defender will leave, LFC will start looking for new centre-backs in the market. Liverpool have identified Crystal Palace's Marc Guehi as their ideal man for this window. However, the talks have not been initiated yet. Liverpool's young centre-back Jarell Quansah is all set to depart Anfield after reportedly agreeing personal terms with Bundesliga side Bayer Leverkusen. The 21-year-old defender, who impressed during his breakthrough season under Jürgen Klopp, appears to be heading for a new challenge in Germany as he looks to continue his development under Xabi Alonso. With Quansah's exit imminent, Liverpool are expected to dive into the transfer market in search of a suitable replacement. According to sources, Crystal Palace's Marc Guehi has emerged as the Reds' top target for the summer window. The England international has been a consistent performer in the Premier League and fits the profile of a modern, ball-playing centre-back. However, despite identifying Guehi as their preferred option, Liverpool are yet to open formal talks with Crystal Palace. The Reds are likely to assess the market and weigh their options once Quansah's departure is officially confirmed.

Advertisement Bournemouth have already brought in a replacement for Kerkez – Adrien Truffert from Rennes, who will battle with January arrival Julio Soler for a starting place under Andoni Iraola next season. Liverpool are working hard in the transfer market. They have already completed a £29.5m deal for the right-back Jeremie Frimpong from Bayer Leverkusen and are close to signing Florian Wirtz from the Bundesliga club. The Germany playmaker had a medical on Friday ahead of completing a £100m move to Merseyside. There is likely to be further dealings between Liverpool and Leverkusen with the two clubs in talks over a deal for Jarell Quansah. The centre-back, who is currently representing England at the European Under-21 Championship, is valued at more than £30m by the Anfield club.
