Liverpool are pushing forward in their pursuit of Marc Guéhi, with Fabrizio Romano revealing that the club is prepared to spend over £30 million (€35m) to secure the defender immediately. Instead of waiting for his Crystal Palace contract to run down next summer, the Reds want the deal done before the current transfer window closes.
Player Open to the Switch
Guéhi has already signaled his approval for the move and is keen to join Arne Slot’s squad at Anfield. Liverpool view the England international as a valuable long-term option who can strengthen their defensive depth alongside Virgil van Dijk, Ibrahima Konaté, and Jarell Quansah.
Palace’s Condition for the Deal
The transfer now depends on Crystal Palace securing a replacement before they allow Guéhi to leave. Palace remain cautious about weakening their back line without first reinforcing it, which means talks could stretch until the final days of the window.
Why Guéhi Appeals to Liverpool
At just 25, Guéhi has already proven himself as one of the Premier League’s most reliable centre-backs. Calm in possession, physically strong, and suited to playing in a high defensive line, he embodies the qualities Liverpool look for in their back four.
If the move is finalized, it would represent another calculated investment by Liverpool — one that strengthens their defense in the short term while also securing a player with the potential to be central to their long-term success.
