Marc Guehi’s deal was off with Liverpool Reds when only medical and official announcement was pending. All the documents were signed but then, Crystal Palace had to leave out their deal for a defender (potential replacement of Guehi). Palace asked Guehi to come back as manager Glasner felt without Guehi’s replacement, the team will become too weak and won’t be able to win games this fluently.
Marc Guehi’s highly-anticipated move to Liverpool sensationally collapsed at the last moment, despite all documents being signed and only a medical and official announcement pending. The Crystal Palace defender was set to become the Reds’ latest addition, but the Eagles pulled the plug when their own deal for a replacement centre-back fell through.
According to reports, Palace manager Glasner felt that losing Guehi without securing a defensive reinforcement would significantly weaken the squad, potentially disrupting their strong form this season. As a result, Guehi was asked to return, with the club prioritising stability over cashing in.
However, the saga may not be over. As per The Sun, Liverpool are still keeping tabs on the 24-year-old, but they now face heavyweight competition from Real Madrid. Los Blancos are in the market for a long-term defensive option and see Guehi as a strong candidate, either in the upcoming January transfer window or next summer.
With two European giants circling, Guehi’s future at Selhurst Park remains uncertain, and the coming months could prove decisive in shaping the next step of his career.
