Bayer Leverkusen have completed the signing of Jarell Quansah from Liverpool. Quansah has been at Liverpool since the age of five. He was promoted to the first team by former manager Jürgen Klopp in 2022 but didn’t make his debut until 27 August 2023 against Newcastle United.
He made 57 appearances for the Reds and won the Premier League and three EFL Cup titles.
The 22-year-old said goodbye to Liverpool fans, teammates, and staff on his social media handles:
“From the moment I walked through the doors of the Academy at 5 years old, I dreamed of one day wearing the Liverpool shirt at Anfield. 17 years later, I can now say I have lived that dream.
To my teammates, thank you for welcoming me, pushing me, and believing in me. I’ve learned so much from sharing the pitch and dressing room with such amazing people and will never forget the incredible memories we’ve had.
To the staff, the coaches, and everyone behind the scenes, your belief and dedication have always been a constant source of motivation. You have helped me grow not only as a footballer, but as a person as well.
And to the fans, your support has always been unmatched. Whether at Anfield or away from home, hearing you sing never failed to inspire me. I will carry that with me wherever I go.
Liverpool will always hold a special place in my heart. It’s not just a club — it’s a family! This is goodbye for now, but I’ll always be watching — once a Red, always a Red.”
Quansah joins the German champions for a fee of £30m plus £5m in add-ons. According to transfer expert Fabrizio Romano, Liverpool have inserted a buy-back clause starting from 2027, worth €60m plus add-ons.
The young defender played a key part in England’s U21 European Championship triumph this summer.
