Liverpool defender Jarell Quansah has opened up on his reasons for choosing to sign for the club.

Quansah had his pick of teams when he was a youth player, with both Manchester clubs chasing after him.

However, the 21-year-old turned down both United and City in favor of playing for the Reds.

I went around different places to see what was out there," he told The Athletic.

I did City, Manchester United, Wigan, Bolton all of them.

Back then, I was just playing and enjoying what I was doing. Any time I could play football, I was happy.

My parents thought having more options would be better.

I just remember Liverpool offering the best training. That was where I enjoyed my football the most and that's why I stayed."
