Former Manchester United manager Erik ten Hag left Jarell Quansah in stitches when meeting the defender ahead of finalising his move to Bayer Leverkusen.

The England Under-21s international completed his switch to the Bundesliga outfit on Wednesday (July 2) as he left Liverpool in a deal worth up to £35m.

The 22-year-old, who was a member of the young Lions side that beat Germany to win the European Championships on Saturday (June 28), underwent a medical on Monday (June 30) ahead of finalising his Anfield exit.

And Quansah burst out laughing after meeting his new head coach as the Dutchman congratulated him on beating Germany in the European Championships final, making no secret of his allegiances given the well-documented rivalry between Germany and the Netherlands.

“Congrats for winning!

“Very good!”

Meanwhile, Quansah has admitted he was eager to complete his move to Leverkusen as soon as the European Championships was over as he explained his decision to leave Liverpool.

“It was an unbelievable feeling, winning with your country,” he told the club.

It’s always good to be of interest to such a big club in Germany.

I love the way they play.

"I was able to get a good impression of the team and the club when we met Leverkusen in the Champions League last season with LFC.

I feel like this club has got the same identity, the fans are going to expect us to win most games and we need to be able to implement that and implementing my desire to win is going to be key.

“Everyone at Liverpool who has taught me and helped over the years as a young boy, I can’t be thankful enough to them.
