"The January transfer window has taken a dramatic turn as Manchester City have emerged as shock contenders to sign Crystal Palace captain Marc Guehi. Pep Guardiola's side may be forced into the market following a defensive injury crisis, with Ruben Dias and Josko Gvardiol both suffering injuries. The move could see the Premier League champions hijack a deal for a player who has long been considered the top defensive target for Liverpool."
"According to a report from BBC Sport, Manchester City are actively exploring a move for the 25-year-old England international. The interest in Marc Guehi has intensified following Sunday's grueling draw against Chelsea, which saw both Josko Gvardiol and Ruben Dias forced off with injuries. With John Stones also currently sidelined, City find themselves desperately short of senior options at the heart of their defense."
"Liverpool face stiff competition for the Crystal Palace defender Liverpool have been after the Crystal Palace captain since the summer transfer window. The Reds even agreed a deal with the Eagles for him, and the player underwent a successful medical on deadline day. However, Crystal Palace pulled the plug on the deal in the final moments of the transfer window, resulting in the move to collapse."
Manchester City have intensified interest in Crystal Palace captain Marc Guehi following injuries to Ruben Dias and Josko Gvardiol, leaving City short of senior centre-back options. The club is progressing a potential January bid to secure a proven Premier League leader to protect their title defence. Liverpool previously agreed a deal for Guehi that collapsed on deadline day when Crystal Palace withdrew, leaving Liverpool to face renewed competition. Guehi’s contract at Selhurst Park runs until summer 2026, placing Real Madrid and Barcelona among clubs monitoring him for a possible free transfer. A January move should not be discounted given City’s injury crisis.
