"The Guehi links are slightly surprising given that Arsenal already have so much quality and strength in depth in defence. The Gunners brought in Piero Hincapie and Cristhian Mosquera during the summer, and both have started well, though they're already clearly behind William Saliba and Gabriel Magalhaes in the pecking order. Ben White, Riccardo Calafiori and Jurrien Timber can also all play at centre-back if needed, so it's hard to see how Guehi would get much playing time at the Emirates Stadium."
"Guehi would surely be better off choosing Liverpool if he wants to play for a big club where he'll actually be a key part of the starting XI. The Reds need a long-term successor to the ageing Virgil van Dijk, while there could also be a big gap in the squad if Ibrahima Konate ends up leaving at the end of his contract this summer."
Sol Campbell recommended Arsenal explore signing Marc Guehi. Marc Guehi has become a top Premier League centre-back and is approaching the end of his Crystal Palace contract. Arsenal have been linked with Guehi but already possess significant defensive depth. William Saliba and Gabriel Magalhaes occupy the primary central roles. Piero Hincapie, Cristhian Mosquera, Ben White, Riccardo Calafiori and Jurrien Timber provide further cover, which would likely limit Guehi's playing time at Arsenal. Liverpool present a clearer opportunity for Guehi to secure regular starts and to serve as a long-term successor to Virgil van Dijk.
