Liverpool Closing in on Marc Guehi Signing as Summer Business Heats Up
Liverpool are reportedly nearing a deal to sign Crystal Palace centre-back Marc Guehi in the current transfer window.
According to a report from DaveOCKop, the Reds are close to landing the 24-year-old England international, who is set to become a free agent next summer and has decided it’s time to leave Selhurst Park. Guehi is eager to join a top club, and Liverpool are keen to bring him to Anfield.
Why Liverpool Want Guehi
With Jarell Quansah set to depart the club this summer, Liverpool are looking to bolster their central defence, and Guehi appears to be the man they’ve identified as a replacement.
The Reds are in need of another consistent and dependable centre-back, and the Crystal Palace star fits the bill.
Injuries have hindered Joe Gomez’s consistency, and Ibrahima Konaté’s future remains uncertain as he has yet to agree to a contract extension. His current deal expires next summer, sparking speculation about a possible exit.
Guehi’s contract situation gives Liverpool a strong position in negotiations, and they’ll hope to secure a deal on favourable terms.
A Move That Makes Sense for Both Sides
Having already proven himself in the Premier League, Guehi is ready for the next step in his career. A switch to Anfield would offer him the chance to compete for major honours at a club that just claimed the Premier League title.
The defender has attracted attention from other English sides, but Liverpool are believed to be his preferred destination.
Liverpool have been busy this summer, already wrapping up deals for Jeremie Frimpong, Florian Wirtz, and most recently, Milos Kerkez — whose signing was officially announced earlier today.
The coming weeks could be key as the Reds look to finalize Guehi’s arrival and continue reinforcing their squad ahead of the new season.
