Liverpool Transfer News: Deal close as Medical SET today

Liverpool are on the brink of closing yet another deal in the transfer window. A medical is set for Monday.

Florian Wirtz, Jeremie Frimpong, Milos Kerkez and Armin Pecsi have already signed for Liverpool this summer. We're not even in July.

Trent Alexander-Arnold and Caoimhin Kelleher have both left the club, too. That's an incredible number of first-team deals for one club given that, again, we haven't even moved into July.

But that's what Liverpool wanted to do this summer. They had grand plans of squad turnover, wishing to hand Arne Slot his squad, rather than Jurgen Klopp's.

After all, he took Klopp's team and turned them into champions - so what can he do with his own? We can't wait to find out.

Even more has to happen before we get to see that squad, though. Liverpool still have certain players who don't quite fit the plans, for one, while there are other areas of the squad that need additions.

The deals will keep coming, then, and we'll see another one confirmed shortly. The Reds have a medical planned for Monday.

Jarell Quansah to Bayer Leverkusen

Ben Jacobs reports that Bayer Leverkusen will hold Jarell Quansah's medical on Monday. It's essentially the final link of the chain that tied the centre-back to the German club.

Liverpool have agreed a fee of around €30m to sell Quansah to Leverkusen. They'll hold onto a buy-back clause of roughly double that, active from 2027.

It's an interesting deal, to say the least. Rewind a year and Quansah was destined to be a star for Liverpool, partnering Virgil van Dijk at the back, ahead of Ibrahima Konate.

That all came crashing down with an incredibly difficult start in the opening fixture of last season. Quansah never recovered his starting role under Slot and it became increasingly apparent that the new boss didn't quite fancy him.

Liverpool aren't entirely ready to give up on him, however. They've asked for a sizeable fee for Quansah - the most of any totally homegrown talent - and will potentially buy him back down the line.

It's possible, after all, that Quansah does fulfil his incredible potential. If Leverkusen get that out of him, Liverpool are in position to bring him home.

The story isn't finished, then. Well, it's not finished because Quansah hasn't actually joined Leverkusen yet but that will change shortly.

Even when the medical is complete and the documents signed, though, Liverpool still have an investment in the defender. He could still be what we hoped he would - and that's a superstar for the Reds.
