The transfer window may be shut, but its aftermath continues to spark controversy. In a heated revelation late last night, Crystal Palace defender Marc Guehi revealed the shocking reason behind his failed switch to Liverpool — and his remarks were nothing short of explosive.
Visibly frustrated, the 24-year-old England international said:
“I will never forgive Liverpool for what they did. At the very last moment, when everything was in place, they suddenly added conditions — despite the fact I had already said my goodbyes to Palace fans and was ready for the move. Because of that, the transfer collapsed. They’ll never get me now. I won’t sign for Liverpool in the future, not unless I get a public apology.”
Liverpool had worked tirelessly to secure Guehi’s services, with supporters convinced the deal was almost done. Yet, in a dramatic Deadline Day twist, everything fell apart — leaving fans shocked and disappointed.
Guehi’s angry comments now shed light on the failed move, suggesting a bitter clash with someone high up in Liverpool’s hierarchy. Though he avoided naming names, insiders suggest a senior Anfield figure was key in blocking the deal — leaving Guehi humiliated after preparing himself for a Palace exit.
Reactions from fans online have been fierce. Some are demanding clarity from the club, while others believe Guehi’s dream of wearing the red shirt is over for good.
One thing is clear: the relationship between Guehi and Liverpool seems irreparable — unless that public apology comes.
So, this is the truth behind why Liverpool missed out on him… maybe only an apology could reopen that door
