No negotiations are currently ongoing between Liverpool and Bayer Leverkusen regarding the departure of their rising talent, as previously suggested in relation to a potential Florian Wirtz deal.
here's the rephrased article:
Liverpool hasn't discussed the potential inclusion of Jarell Quansah in their negotiations for Bayer Leverkusen's Florian Wirtz yet, sources confirm. The Reds are aiming to seal a deal for Wirtz, who could cost a staggering £126m - a British record fee.
Rumors spread that Liverpool might try to lower Leverkusen's asking price by adding one of their players to the negotiations, but these speculations are unsubstantiated as of now.
According to insiders, Liverpool has no plans to let Quansah, a 22-year-old Liverpool academy graduate who debuted in the 2023-24 season, go at this juncture. Though he faced competition from Virgil van Dijk and Ibrahima Konate under current manager Arne Slot, he managed 17 league appearances in Jurgen Klopp's final season.
Reports had earlier linked Quansah with a move to Newcastle last summer as part of a proposed deal involving Anthony Gordon. However, that swap deal didn't materialize, and Quansah remained at Liverpool, where he clinched his first Premier League title.
Currently, Quansah is in Slovakia with England's Under-21 squad as they gear up to defend their European Championship title. The next few weeks may bring clarity regarding Quansah's future.
Negotiations with Leverkusen over Wirtz are progressing, albeit with some final details still pending before the transfer to Liverpool can be finalized. With an agreement on personal terms anticipated and a medical scheduled for next week[1][2][3], the deal seems imminent. Liverpool previously signed Jeremie Frimpong from Leverkusen this summer, and they are expected to wrap up this double transfer in the near future.
