With his contract at Selhurst Park expiring at the end of the season, several elite clubs are lining up to pitch long-term projects to the 25-year-old defender. However, Man City's situation has added urgency to the race."
"Man City are going through an injury crisis Pep Guardiola's side are currently grappling with injuries to key centre-backs Josko Gvardiol and Ruben Dias, leaving them short in a crucial phase of the season. As a result, the club's hierarchy has decided to act now, even if it means paying a premium for a player they might otherwise have pursued on a free transfer in the summer."
"Crystal Palace, aware of Guehi's soaring value and widespread demand, are holding firm on their valuation. Financially, selling Guehi in the winter transfer window makes sense for them as they would be getting a transfer fee for a player who would soon be available for free. They would have preferred to keep him till the end of the season but it makes no sense for them as far as finances are concerned."
