Bayer Leverkusen have signed England Under-21 defender Jarell Quansah from Liverpool on a five-year deal. Though official fees remain undisclosed, reports suggest the transfer could reach £35 million including add-ons.

Quansah, 22, graduated from Liverpool’s academy and made 58 appearances since his senior debut in the 2023-24 season. He was also part of England’s victorious Under-21 European Championship squad this year.

Leverkusen’s Sporting Director Simon Rolfes praised Quansah’s pace, agility, and skill, highlighting him as one of England’s top defensive talents.

Leverkusen, runners-up in the Bundesliga last season, recently appointed Erik ten Hag as head coach. The club also sold Florian Wirtz and Jeremie Frimpong to Liverpool, with Wirtz’s transfer valued at around £100 million plus bonuses.
