It was back in June 2024, when Newcastle first contacted Liverpool. It was a strange call, as the Magpies were more than happy with Anthony Gordon, who had a great time since signing from Everton for 45 million euros in January 2023. And all of sudden, they were asking the Reds if they are ready to do a deal for their former Academy outcast. The situation was quite scary for the Magpies. The ritchest club in the world was in serious danger of breaching PSR regulations and was in need of selling players and doing it fast. The deal was so near of completing that it was reported that the player himself told his England teammates during EURO 2024 that the deal is near completion. He was so distracted that Gareth Soutgate didn‘t choose him during the tournament as much as he wanted to.[🚨] NEW: Liverpool are not considering the sale of Jarell Quansah who is a big part of Arne Slot’s plans. [@JamesPearceLFC]— Anfield Sector (@AnfieldSector) March 27, 2025 The PSR problem was resolved when Newcastle sold Yankuba Minteh to Brighton for 39 million euros, and Elliot Anderson to Nottingham Forest for 41 million while getting Odysseas Vlachodimos as part of the deal. Gordon was unsettled for some time, but eventually, he got a new contract and now, Newcastle are coming back for a player who was a part of the never formalized deal with Liverpool. When they negotiated about Gordon‘s transfer, they offered the Reds Gordon in exchange for money and Jarell Quansah. Liverpool was ready to do the deal, but told Newcastle that Quansah was untouchable. They have seen the young center-back as their future star and offered Joe Gomez instead.Reds’ legend: ‘Please give Salah whatever he wants’Now, after almost a full season under new boss Arne Slot, it seems that Quansah didn‘t blossomed as everyone hoped. Or maybe the absence of any seriously injured defender was the reason the youngster (22) wasn‘t given a proper chance. Whatever the reason is, he played only 286 minutes and started in just two games. So, when June comes, according to The Times, the Magpies will test the waters with a 30 million pounds bid. They need a long-term replacement for their aged center back Fabian Schar (34) and they also need more cover in every part of the team since they will be playing European football (won the Carabao Cup), so the player would be almost guaranteed more playing time then with the Reds. Will this sum be enough for Liverpool, do they want to sell at all or does Quansah wants to leave the club he started his career in are the legitimate questions will be answered in June.##NAJAVA_MECA_8805307##
