Bayer Leverkusen discussing potential Jarell Quansah signing with Liverpool
The 22-year-old defender, who only signed a new five-year contract in October, is fourth-choice centre-back at Anfield despite starting the first match of last season. Quansah is currently at the European Championship with England Under-21s and earlier this week said: 'I'm in a very good position to take the next step.' Negotiations are at an early stage and are not linked to Liverpool's club-record deal for the Bundesliga side's playmaker Florian Wirtz, whose arrival in a potential £115million deal could be announced as early as Friday.

Leverkusen closing in on a deal to sign this PL centre-back
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.

Fabrizio Romano: 22-year-old Liverpool Star has ‘Opened Doors' to Summer Exit
Liverpool's Defensive Reshuffle: Quansah's Openness to Leverkusen Move Raises Big Questions Liverpool's summer transfer window continues to develop at pace, with fresh uncertainty surrounding the future of promising centre-back Jarell Quansah. As reported by Fabrizio Romano, Quansah 'has opened doors to joining Bayer Leverkusen while clubs are in direct contact,' a clear indication that talks have progressed well beyond speculative interest. For a player who made 25 appearances during a title-winning Premier League campaign, this is a surprising turn. The 22-year-old was largely seen as a key part of Liverpool's future under Arne Slot, yet a €30 million move to Leverkusen is now being seriously considered. Advertisement According to Kicker, the Bundesliga champions are eager to add Quansah to their growing Liverpool collection after securing Jeremie Frimpong and Florian Wirtz in deals that were linked to the Merseyside club. This potential third transaction is not just about one defender's future, but could influence Liverpool's entire defensive strategy this summer. Photo: IMAGO Repercussions Across the Backline Quansah's exit would come amid ongoing questions around other senior defenders. Ibrahima Konaté, according to Times Sport, is yet to commit to new terms and is asking for a 40 percent pay rise. Joe Gomez, meanwhile, is attracting interest from abroad, leaving Liverpool with more questions than answers at the back. Advertisement The situation places added importance on recruitment. The club has been monitoring Brentford's Nathan Collins, a robust, right-footed centre-half who played every Premier League minute last season. He fits the Slot mould — composed, quick, and technically solid — but bringing him in would take decisive and immediate action. With Virgil van Dijk in his thirties and both Gomez and Konaté struggling to stay fit over recent seasons, Quansah was seen as the steady presence for the future. His departure would trigger the need for at least one new centre-back, possibly more depending on other outgoings. Leverkusen's Aggressive Strategy There's little doubt that Leverkusen are making bold moves in the market. Their intent to build a squad that can continue challenging at home and in Europe is visible, and their frequent links with Liverpool players are no coincidence. The Bundesliga champions are operating with a clear identity, and Quansah's profile aligns well with their model — young, athletic, and already tested at the top level. Advertisement This may explain Quansah's willingness to consider the move. With Liverpool's depth chart stacked and competition fierce, regular first-team football in Germany under a progressive system could be a tempting next step. Photo: IMAGO Liverpool Must Act Fast What was once a hypothetical link has now taken shape into something very real. Romano's confirmation that 'clubs are in direct contact' underlines the need for Liverpool to make a call. Do they see Quansah as a future starter worth holding onto, or do they bank the €30 million and reinvest in more experienced or stylistically aligned defenders? Advertisement Either way, the clock is ticking, and with two significant sales already completed in Trent Alexander-Arnold and Caoimhin Kelleher, Liverpool's defensive refresh appears to be accelerating faster than originally planned. Our View – Anfield Index Analysis This one stings, and not just because Quansah is homegrown and fresh off helping us win the league. The timing feels off. Losing a young, composed centre-back with a massive ceiling just as our veteran defenders are starting to show their age is worrying. With Van Dijk not getting any younger and Konaté still struggling to string together 10 consecutive games, Quansah should be the one we're building around — not cashing in on. Sure, €30 million sounds nice, but what's that worth if it means panic-buying a stopgap in late August? Brentford's Nathan Collins is solid, no doubt, but he's not proven at the same level. And while we all love Joe Gomez, injuries have plagued his best years. Letting Quansah go without a clear and immediate plan feels like rolling the dice. Advertisement The worry here is that we might be talking ourselves into short-term fixes instead of future-proofing the defence. If Arne Slot really wants a high line and fast transitions, we need mobile, disciplined defenders who know the system. Quansah looked like he could be that. Losing him now risks us undoing some of the stability we built last season. Fans won't take kindly to another young gem slipping through our fingers, especially to a club that keeps circling us like vultures. If Quansah goes, the pressure's on to replace him smartly — and quickly.
