Liverpool are now looking at Crystal Palace’s Marc Guehi as a potential bargain buy next summer, with his contract situation allowing for a significant price reduction. With his current value possibly dropping to between £40m-£50m, this figure is noticeably lower than the £70m Crystal Palace had demanded in previous negotiations. It indicates Liverpool's strategic planning for a transition in their defensive lineup, focusing on long-term replacements for veteran defenders.
Newcastle were heavily pursuing Guehi, having their last bid of £65m rejected by Crystal Palace. Their interest has been long-standing, and they are likely to renew efforts next summer, but the reduced price may ignite interest from other clubs, especially after significant performances at EURO 2024. The potential signing of Guehi would not only strengthen Liverpool’s defense but also complicate Newcastle’s future ambitions in acquiring him.
