Liverpool has officially announced that Jarell Quansah has signed a new long-term contract with the club, ensuring that the 21-year-old center-back remains at Anfield for an extended period.
Quansah has made significant strides in his career and is on the verge of receiving his first senior call-up for the England national team. His impressive development is largely attributed to Liverpoolâs new manager, Arne Slot.
While Quansah debuted under former manager Jurgen Klopp, itâs Slotâs arrival that has elevated his performances. In an interview with Liverpool FC, Quansah expressed his appreciation for Slotâs influence, stating, âI couldnât be happier right now. The new managerâs coaching style has been crucial to my growth, and I believe Liverpool is the ideal place for me to develop and improve as a player.â
He also highlighted the support from his teammates, especially those who have served as role models. âIâm surrounded by some of the best players in the world in my position, and I learn from them every day. Thereâs no better environment for me,â he said.
Quansah is currently competing with Ibrahima Konate for the opportunity to partner club captain Virgil Van Dijk in Liverpoolâs defense. His performances and potential have made him a valuable member of Slotâs squad, earning him this new contract, which will enhance his status and financial rewards within the team.
As Liverpool aims to secure the futures of key defenders, the club is also expected to negotiate new deals for Konate and Van Dijk. Slot is prioritizing long-term agreements for his first-choice defenders to maintain stability in the Redsâ defense for the foreseeable future.
