"He also scored his first England goal in their 5-0 win over Serbia during the international break, further solidifying his place in Thomas Tuchel's 2026 World Cup squad. Since joining Palace in July 2021, no player has played more successful passes (8,093), made more clearances (609), won more aerial duels (276) and made more interceptions (149) than Guehi for the Eagles in all competitions."
"And the second thing is, after many discussions, the chairman [Steve Parish] asked me, 'Oliver, do you think we can manage the season when we sell Marc?' I said: 'Steve, honestly, I think we can't manage it in the short term if we buy a fantastic 19-year-old player with about 1,000 minutes in Ligue 1 and sell our captain with about 15,000 minutes in the Premier League.'"
Marc Guehi was reported close to a £35m move to Liverpool before the transfer collapse. Guehi featured in 34 Premier League matches last season, scored three goals, provided two assists and won 59.2% of his duels. Guehi captained Palace to their first major trophy with an FA Cup win and led the side in the Community Shield. He scored his first England goal in a 5-0 win over Serbia and strengthened his place in the 2026 World Cup squad. Oliver Glasner denied threatening to quit and said selling Guehi would leave the club short-term vulnerable given his experience and minutes.
