"They tried for Marc Guehi. It collapsed on deadline day and I think Liverpool would go back in for him in the summer of 2026. I'm not expecting him to leave Crystal Palace in January. Actually, I'm not expecting Liverpool to go for a centre back in January as things stand. Of course, these things could change, but I don't think it's a plan."
"Leoni joined in the summer, and the plan had been for him to be one of two central defenders arriving at Anfield. Jarrel Quansah needed to be replaced, but there was also a desire for a Joe Gomez upgrade to be sought and one almost arrived in Marc Guehi, but a deal broke down late in the transfer window. Nevertheless, Guehi has remained on Liverpool's radar, and it has been expected that they will try again for him in January,"
Geovanni Leoni will be sidelined long-term after tearing his ACL, creating scope for a centre-back arrival. Leoni joined in the summer and was expected to be one of two central defenders brought to Anfield, addressing Jarrel Quansah's replacement and a desired Joe Gomez upgrade. A late-window deal for Marc Guehi collapsed, but Guehi remained a target and was expected to be pursued in January. David Ornstein reports Liverpool are not intending to sign Guehi in January and currently have no plans to sign any central defender then. Significant competition from top European clubs is anticipated for Guehi next summer, though club officials remain confident of his eventual arrival at Anfield.
