Liverpool and Bayer Leverkusen appear to be working on a third deal of the summer transfer window \u2013 shortly after bringing Jeremie Frimpong to Anfield and trying to do the same with Florian Wirtz.<\/p>\n
After sealing the Premier League title, Liverpool<\/a> are pressing ahead with trying to strengthen their squad ahead of the 2025\/26 season.<\/p>\n Frimpong<\/a> swapped Leverkusen for the Reds for \u00a329.5 million (\u20ac35m, $40m) last month, and Arne Slot\u2019s side are working on a club-record transfer for Wirtz<\/a>.<\/p>\n But it seems the dealings between the two clubs may not end there, with the Bundesliga outfit reportedly turning their attention to defensive reinforcements.<\/p>\n According to\u00a0Fabrizio Romano<\/a>, the German team have added Seville centre-back Loic Bade to their transfer shortlist, alongside Liverpool defender Jarell Quansah.<\/p>\n Leverkusen, who now have Erik ten Hag in charge after Xabi Alonso left them for Real Madrid<\/a>, are looking for a Jonathan Tah replacement \u2013 following his move to Bayern Munich.<\/p>\n Romano adds that any pursuit of Quansah, who has struggled for game time at the Merseyside team this season, would be separate from Liverpool\u2019s Wirtz pursuit.<\/p>\n DON\u2019T MISS<\/strong>:\u00a0Liverpool still have three hurdles to clear before Florian Wirtz signs despite Romano claims<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n Bade in demand, Quansah faces uncertain future<\/strong><\/p>\n Despite Sevilla having a disastrous season by their standards, one which almost ended in relegation from La Liga as they finished 17th, Bade<\/a> was the few to come away from the campaign with any credit in the bank.<\/p>\n The 6ft 3in player made 33 appearances in all competitions for the Spanish club, 32 of which were starts, and that has led to Premier League interest.<\/p>\n TEAMtalk previously revealed that Liverpool have long been linked<\/a> with the one-time France international, whose contract runs the summer of 2029.<\/p>\n But Aston Villa, Chelsea, Newcastle United<\/a>, and more, have also been credited with interest in for the 25-year-old. While he is in demand, Quansah has had a more difficult season.<\/p>\n The 23-year-old, whose current terms run until 2029 but the club have an option to extend that by a further year, has made just 13 starts in all competitions from his 25 appearances.<\/p>\n He is firmly behind captain Virgil van Dijk and Ibrahima Konate in Liverpool\u2019s defensive line, and that may lead him to consider his Reds future.<\/p>\n Liverpool transfer news: Tchouameni possibility, Ekitike signing?<\/strong><\/p>\n \ud83d\udd34\u00a0The five Liverpool targets most heavily linked with Anfield transfers after Jeremie Frimpong<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n \ud83d\udd34\u00a0Liverpool told blockbuster striker deal CAN follow Florian Wirtz if two things happen<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n
