"The clause is valid this summer despite suggestions it can only be triggered in 2027, but Liverpool have taken no steps to bring Quansah back. The expectation is captain Virgil van Dijk will stay with the club until at least 2027, when his current contract expires, while Liverpool remain in talks with Ibrahima Konate over a contract extension."
"GMS understands Liverpool are not planning to trigger the buyback clause this summer, but the whole point of it is to give them a long-term option to bring Quansah back to Anfield. This possibility is certainly not ruled out, but currently more likely in 2027 and beyond."
"Quansah has impressed for Leverkusen since leaving Anfield making 32 appearances and scoring four times, and won his first England cap in November in England's World Cup qualifier against Albania."
Jarell Quansah transferred to Bayer Leverkusen in July for £35million with a buyback clause valued at approximately £52million. Although the clause is valid this summer, Liverpool has taken no steps to activate it. The club expects captain Virgil van Dijk to remain until at least 2027, while negotiations continue with Ibrahima Konate regarding a contract extension. Quansah has performed well in Germany, making 32 appearances and scoring four goals, and earned his first England cap in November. Liverpool is already strengthening its defense by signing Jeremy Jacquet from Rennes for £55million plus potential add-ons. The buyback clause remains a long-term option, with a potential return more likely in 2027 or beyond rather than immediately.
