"It could force Liverpool to push ahead and try to do a deal in January to ward off interest from those top European clubs. You've got the likes of Bayern Munich, Barcelona or Real Madrid, Inter Milan all ready and waiting to try and sign Guehi next summer on a free transfer or even on a pre-contract. So that could force Liverpool's hand to make a move in January."
"Initially after the deal fell through in the summer, it was suggested that Liverpool wouldn't return for him in January and would wait to try and sign him on a free transfer. But obviously, their need for defensive reinforcements could for Liverpool to bring the deal forward. I think Liverpool ideally would like to wait until the summer and sign the England international on a free, but there will obviously be a big competition for his signature as well from these top European clubs."
Liverpool came close to signing Marc Guehi from Crystal Palace in summer 2025 and intended to secure him on a free transfer at season’s end. Major European clubs such as Bayern Munich, Barcelona, Real Madrid and Inter Milan are reportedly prepared to sign Guehi next summer either on a free transfer or via a pre-contract. Strong rival interest and Liverpool’s need for defensive reinforcements could force the club to move in the January transfer window rather than waiting for a free move in the summer. Competition for his signature is expected to be significant ahead of January.
