Leverkusen push huge Liverpool bid for 22-year-old as centre-back talks stall elsewhere

Liverpool could be forced into the defensive market again this summer, with Jarell Quansah now the subject of serious interest from Bayer Leverkusen.

According to Kicker, the Bundesliga runners-up are pushing to sign the 22-year-old and have made him their top target to replace new Bayern defender Jonathan Tah.

Quansah, who played 25 games in all competitions last season and helped us win the Premier League title under Arne Slot, is currently away with England at the Under-21 European Championship in Slovakia.
