"The England international came so close to moving to Anfield late on in the transfer window, with reliable outlets like the Athletic reporting that a deal had been agreed. However, this fell through late on and Liverpool must now be regretting that even more, with Slot confirming the Giovanni Leoni injury blow earlier this morning as well. This leaves the Reds short of depth at the back, and that will be why they were so keen on someone like Guehi in the first place."
"Perhaps understandably, the Dutch tactician was not too keen to talk about LFC missing out on Guehi, but it's clear he still rates the player very highly. Slot focused on Palace as a whole, with Oliver Glasner's side in fantastic form at the moment, having gone unbeaten in their last 17 games. Guehi has been a big part of that with his solid defensive displays for Palace,"
Arne Slot praised Crystal Palace centre-back Marc Guehi and reiterated high regard for the England international. Guehi nearly moved to Anfield late in the transfer window after reports suggested a deal had been agreed, but the transfer collapsed. Liverpool now face defensive depth issues after confirmation of Giovanni Leoni's injury. Liverpool will play against Guehi as Crystal Palace visit Selhurst Park in the Premier League. Crystal Palace have gone unbeaten in their last 17 games, with Guehi a key defensive contributor. Liverpool remain linked with Guehi and have also shown interest in Ronald Araujo.
