Overview
- Football Observatory now values the 22-year-old at £50m–£59m, up from the £35m fee Liverpool received in July.
- After a 2-0 win over Albania, England manager Thomas Tuchel said Quansah is "a tiny bit ahead" of Trent Alexander-Arnold, citing his form, minutes and ability to play centrally or on the right.
- Quansah has played consistently for Bayer Leverkusen under Kasper Hjulmand and made his senior England debut in Tirana, while Alexander-Arnold has only five La Liga appearances for Real Madrid due to injury.
- The Liverpool Echo reports Liverpool inserted a buyback clause in the £35m sale, understood to be around £50m–£60m and expected to take effect in 2027, with a pre-agreed contract also in place.
- Local coverage details ongoing fan backlash toward Alexander-Arnold's move, including a vandalised mural and boos during his substitute appearance at Anfield on November 4.
