That’s according to Sky Germany journalist Florian Plettenberg on X, with the reporter claiming the Reds have the option to bring Quansah back for a fee of €80m.
See below, however, as Plettenberg claims Liverpool’s current priority in defence is to sort out a new contract for Ibrahima Konate, who is close to the end of his deal…

Jarrell Quansah transfer return could be a sensible option for Liverpool
Even if Konate does stay, LFC surely need another signing in defence this summer after the dip in form of Virgil van Dijk.
Quansah didn’t really put a foot wrong during his first spell at Anfield, but before he left it was hard for him to get regular playing time.
That would probably be easier for the 23-year-old now, with Liverpool in need of more options and fresh blood for next season after this disappointing campaign.
€80m looks like a lot to pay for Quansah, but it’s probably an option worth considering as there probably won’t be many other easily affordable options out there on the market.
Quansah has improved a lot since his move to Leverkusen and now looks ready to come in and make an impact at Liverpool.
