Liverpool have placed a valuation of over £40 million on centre-back Jarell Quansah, as interest in the young defender continues to rise across Europe, according to a report by The Athletic.
The 22-year-old, who is of Ghanaian descent, is not officially on the market, but the Reds are understood to be open to a deal if their asking price is met.
Quansah has attracted the attention of several clubs, with Bundesliga champions Bayer Leverkusen reportedly among the sides monitoring his situation closely.
Despite being seen as a backup to first-choice centre-backs Virgil van Dijk and Ibrahima Konaté, Quansah remains highly rated within the club’s hierarchy.
Liverpool view him as a player with strong potential and will only entertain offers that reflect his value and future prospects.
Quansah himself is believed to be seeking more consistent first-team opportunities in the upcoming season, a factor that could make a move away from Anfield more feasible if a suitable offer arrives.
“Quansah wants more minutes and could be open to the right move,” the report stated, hinting that both player and club may be aligned in their willingness to consider the right deal.
Liverpool are likely to face a decision in the coming weeks as suitors weigh up whether to meet the valuation for a player who has shown glimpses of top-level quality but remains on the fringes of regular starting action.
With the summer transfer window already taking shape, Quansah’s future will be one of several moving parts in Liverpool’s wider squad planning under head coach Arne Slot, who is expected to assess all fringe players during pre-season.
