Liverpool are known for their genius in the transfer market and they appear to always work tirelessly to get deals over the line.

The Reds have a big summer ahead of them and, although it is going to be a summer of change, it is an exciting time for the fans.

Jeremie Frimpong is the first arrival at Liverpool and many others look set to follow swiftly, including Bournemouth left-back Milos Kerkez, who is keen to join.



However, as many know, deals are complicated and take time to complete, much to the frustration of many fans who can only watch on from afar.



But, when done right, the outcome will benefit both clubs, something that appears to be the case between Bayer Leverkusen and Liverpool, as the deal for Florian Wirtz looks like a tough one to get over the line.

With the eventual fee set to be well over the £100m mark, deals like this get complicated and many of the small details need to be ironed out fully.

One of these according to Kicker could be that Liverpool offer a player plus cash offer after the Reds’ second bid of £109.6m was rejected, with Harvey Elliott and Jarell Quansah being two players that could be included.

A fee of £126m is reportedly around the mark that Leverkusen are looking for, but with Elliott and Quansah already linked with a move away from Anfield this summer, it would be a smart piece of business to include them in this deal.

Leverkusen have been keen on Quansah for quite some time now and his departure looks likely, especially given Liverpool’s interest in Ajax’s Jorell Hato, and Elliott looks like he has played his last game at Anfield after breaking down on the pitch following their final game of the season against Crystal Palace.

The 22-year-old has been left frustrated with his lack of minutes this season, something that will likely be reduced further following the arrival of Wirtz, suggesting it might be time to cut ties with his boyhood club.

With Liverpool looking for a young centre-back this summer, Quansah appears the more likely to be included in the Wirtz deal, particularly as the Reds will likely get more money for Elliott, who also has more potential suitors.

Wolves and Brighton are interested in the former Fulham man, as well as clubs from around Europe, while Quansah is already attracting interest from Bundesliga sides, meaning swapping him makes more sense.

Liverpool reportedly want £25-£30m for Quansah, making this the perfect amount to match the gap in Wirtz’s valuation between both sides.



Swap deals, especially at Liverpool, do not happen often, but this one might just be a stroke of genius that could help get the deal finally over the line.
