Liverpool have officially announced that Jarell Quansah has signed a new long-term contract with the club. This agreement will keep the 21-year-old center-back at Anfield for an extended period, solidifying his future with the Reds.
Quansah has enjoyed a significant breakthrough in his career and is now close to earning his first call-up to the senior England national team. His development has been remarkable, and much of the credit goes to Liverpool’s new manager, Arne Slot.
Although Quansah made his debut under previous manager Jurgen Klopp, it is Slot’s arrival that has taken the young defender’s performances to the next level. Reflecting on his new contract, Quansah expressed his gratitude for Slot’s impact on his career. “I couldn’t be happier at this minute,” he said in an interview with Liverpool FC. “The new manager’s coaching style has played a huge role in my growth, and I believe Liverpool is the best club for me to develop and become a better player.”
Quansah also acknowledged the importance of the players around him in his growth, particularly those who have been role models in his position. “I’m surrounded by the best players in the world in my position, and I’m learning from them every day. There’s no better place for me to be,” he added.
Currently competing with Ibrahima Konate for the chance to partner club captain Virgil Van Dijk in the heart of Liverpool’s defense, Quansah has become a highly valued member of Slot’s squad. His performances and potential have earned him this new contract, which will also see him rise in the team’s hierarchy, both in terms of status and financial rewards.
As Liverpool focus on securing the futures of their key defenders, the club is also expected to offer new deals to Konate and Van Dijk. Slot is making it a priority to ensure that his first-choice defenders are locked into long-term agreements, ensuring stability in the Reds’ defense for years to come.
