BAYER LEVERKUSEN have agreed a deal to sign Jarell Quansah from Liverpool for a fee of £30m, according to reports.
Quansah, 22, will sign a contract with the Bundesliga outfit until 2030, but could return to Merseyside in the future thanks to a savvy clause in his deal.

According to Fabrizio Romano, Liverpool have included a buy-back clause in the defender’s contract that will give them control over the England youth international’s future should they wish to bring him back to Anfield.
Leverkusen are expected to pay Liverpool an initial £30m fee for Quansah, with £5m worth of potential add-ons also included in the deal.
Quansah, who is currently away with the England U21 squad at the U21 European Championships, featured in 13 Premier League games for Liverpool last season.
His switch to Leverkusen could now spark Liverpool into a move for Crystal Palace defender Marc Guehi.
Guehi is admired by the top brass at Anfield and is thought to prefer a move to Arne Slot‘s side over fellow suitors Arsenal.
The England defender wants regular first-team football and assurances from Gunners boss Mikel Arteta that he will get it in the North London team.
But William Saliba and Gabriel Magalhaes would almost certainly start ahead of the 24-year-old if he was to move there.
The defender does not want to be sitting on the bench with the World Cup coming up next summer and Liverpool could be the perfect fit.

Guehi featured 44 times for Crystal Palace last season, scoring three times helping the Eagles to earn a record Premier League points tally and lift the FA Cup.
While he has become a regular for the England national team in recent seasons, racking up 23 caps and standing out as one of the Three Lions’ top performers at Euro 2024.
