Jarell Quansah made his England debut in the 2-0 victory over Albania on Sunday, with the defender’s decision to leave Liverpool vindicated on the “greatest day of his life.” Quansah was made to wait almost a year-and-a-half for his England debut, having first been called up in June 2024, but he was named in Thomas Tuchel’s starting lineup on Sunday.

I’m so grateful, thank you.” Why Quansah left Liverpool: “Hundreds of games” Quansah departed Liverpool after 17 years with the club in the summer, joining Bayer Leverkusen in a deal worth £35 million in pursuit of regular first-team football. “I think overall that’s just why the decision was made and why I thought going abroad was sort of best for me.” He has not only found that in Germany – starting eight of Leverkusen’s 10 Bundesliga games as well as three out of four in the Champions League – but that has opened up opportunities with England too.

Liverpool buy-back clause: Quansah’s 2027 return But there is a strong chance Quansah could still rejoin his boyhood club, after a buy-back clause was negotiated into the deal with Leverkusen. That could provide a pathway for Quansah to return, with the Mail‘s Lewis Steele reporting in September that the centre-back has already agreed a provisional contract with Liverpool.
