Jarell Quansah could have a decision to make on his Liverpool future this summer, with Newcastle, as well as a host of Bundesliga clubs, said to be interested in the youngster.
The 22-year-old enjoyed a progressive 2023-24 season under Jurgen Klopp, making 13 starts in the Premier League, including in 10 of the Reds' last 15 games of the campaign.
However, under Arne Slot, the youngster has lined up just once in the league since the opening day of the season and is firmly the Dutchman's fourth-choice center-back after Virgil van Dijk, Ibrahima Konate, and Joe Gomez.

“I think everybody has seen recently that he did really well and I see in training sessions that he is back to being the same Jarell that he was in pre-season,” Slot said
