"If you're just valuing sports, everyone in the club will say Marc has to stay. The chairman will tell you the same. But it's not one-dimensional. If you see the financial situation, it's very important. If somebody comes, there will be a moment when the club says 'now the financial issue is more important than the sports issue'. There will be a threshold where the club has to say it will happen - as long as Marc says 'I want to leave', because the final decision is always with the player."
"If a massive offer comes from City and Marc wants to do it, it will happen."
"The chairman rejected many offers in the summer because we want to play a successful season and wanted to win the Community Shield,"
Marc Guehi is Crystal Palace captain and an England defender who will be out of contract in the summer. Manchester City have emerged as contenders to sign him in the January transfer window after injuries to Josko Gvardiol and Ruben Dias. Crystal Palace blocked a proposed £35m move to Liverpool last summer but risk losing the 25-year-old for nothing at season end. The club will consider accepting a large January offer if financial realities outweigh sporting priorities and the player wishes to leave. Several top European clubs have shown interest and Guehi can sign a pre-contract overseas from this month.
