"Manchester City reportedly look to be closing in on the 20m transfer of Crystal Palace centre-back Marc Guehi, according to Fabrizio Romano. The England international has accepted the offer from Man City, rejecting the likes of Arsenal and Liverpool, who had also been in the mix for his signature, albeit for the summer when he would have become a free agent."
"Romano had recently been among the sources to link Guehi with Arsenal, whilst reporting on Liverpool's ongoing interest since the summer. Mikel Arteta really believes he's a top player, but Arsenal also have many players in that position. And so that's a point, Romano said on his YouTube channel. Then there is general interest from Liverpool. They had a deal agreed last summer Liverpool remain absolutely interested in Marc Guehi and so it's going to be one to watch for sure."
Manchester City finalised a reported 20m transfer agreement with Crystal Palace for centre-back Marc Guehi, with the 25-year-old accepting the move to the Etihad. Guehi rejected interest from Arsenal and Liverpool, both previously linked, with Liverpool reportedly interested since the summer and Arsenal having alternative options in that position. City pushed for an immediate transfer rather than waiting for a potential free move in the summer, prompting Guehi to abandon plans to run down his contract. The transfer secures a young England international defender for Manchester City's squad midseason.
