Buyer Leverkusen are reportedly interested in signing Liverpool defender Jarell Quansah during the summer transfer window.

According to a report from The Athletic, Jarell Quansah is valued at £40 million, and it remains to be seen whether the Bundesliga outfit are prepared to pay up. Liverpool would be open to selling the player for the right price this summer.

The young defender has struggled for game time at Liverpool, and a move to Germany could be ideal for his development. They might be able to provide him with more opportunities next season. He needs to play regularly at this stage of his career in order to continue his development.

Meanwhile, Liverpool are looking to improve their squad significantly this summer, and they could use some funds. Selling the young defender could help raise a substantial amount of money, and they could use that to bring in established stars who will help them retain the Premier League crown next season.

Liverpool have already dealt with Bayer Leverkusen twice this summer.  They have recently signed Jeremie Frimpong from the German club, and they are closing in on the capture of Florian Wirtz as well. The two clubs clearly have an amicable relationship, and it remains to be seen whether the German club can sign Quansah in the coming weeks.

Quansah needs to move on

The defender will want to compete at a high level regularly, and joining one of the biggest clubs in Germany will be quite exciting for him. It could be fantastic for his development. He will have plenty of opportunities to return to the Premier League and join a big club in future.

For now, he should focus on his development and look to join a club where he will get regular opportunities. Sitting on the bench at Liverpool is unlikely to benefit him at this stage of his career.

The German outfit clearly have the finances to get the deal done. They have sold key players this summer, and selling clubs will not want to let them get their targets for cheap. It remains to be seen whether Liverpool can recoup £40 million for the homegrown player in the coming weeks.
