STATUS: REPORTED INTEREST

Jarell Quansah is on the radar of Liverpool, Chelsea and Arsenal, according to an October 7 update from Sky Germany journalist Florian Plettenberg. Real Madrid are also reported to be continuing to scout the Bayer Leverkusen defender.

Plettenberg says Quansah could leave in summer 2027 and that movement is taking place behind the scenes. That wording points to activity and interest, not confirmed negotiations between clubs.

Liverpool are reported to hold a €70 million buy-back option valid until June 15, 2027. The figure, deadline and mechanism of the clause are media reports; the clubs have not publicly confirmed them in this development.

There is no official bid, club-to-club negotiation, personal agreement, medical or decision from Quansah to leave. He remains under contract with Bayer Leverkusen, so the status is reported interest only.
