Jarell Quansah Transfer from Bayer 04 Leverkusen to Arsenal
According to Standard Sport, while a formal approach has yet to be made to Bayer Leverkusen, former Liverpool centre-back Jarell Quansah is one of several defensive targets currently under consideration in north London. Manager Mikel Arteta needs a new signing who can play either in the centre of defence or at right-back before the summer transfer window closes on September 1. According to Sky Sports, Bayer Leverkusen are very reluctant to sell Quansah and would likely demand a fee significantly higher than the £30million they paid to sign him last summer. A buy-back clause for the 23-year-old, valued at approximately £60m and which Liverpool were believed to have, is now said to have expired.
