Liverpool are confident of signing Crystal Palace defender Marc Guehi on a free transfer when his contract expires next summer. The 25-year-old centre-back was close to a £35 million move in September, but Palace canceled it due to lack of a replacement. Guehi could become a regular starter alongside Virgil van Dijk, while Real Madrid remain interested in Ibrahima Konate.
During the current transfer window, Liverpool are confident of securing Crystal Palace defender Marc Guehi on a free transfer next summer. The Reds came close to signing the England international on deadline day, with Guehi even undergoing a medical, but Palace halted the £35 million move as they struggled to find a suitable replacement. Reports suggest that Guehi will complete the season at Selhurst Park before joining Liverpool once his contract expires.
The 25-year-old centre-back has become one of the most reliable defenders in England, and his future at Palace appears limited after the failed move. Speculation had linked him with Real Madrid, but Liverpool are reportedly ahead in the race, having already agreed personal terms. At Anfield, Guehi could potentially secure a starting spot alongside Virgil van Dijk and Ibrahima Konate, although Konate’s future is uncertain as his contract talks with Liverpool have stalled and he could explore other opportunities.
Guehi’s potential arrival would strengthen Liverpool’s central defence, giving the club a reliable option at right centre-back. While Madrid maintain contact with Konate’s representatives and could target him in the winter transfer window, Liverpool appear to have the clear advantage in landing Guehi on a free transfer, making it a strategic move for the Premier League holders for the next season.
