Liverpool are in active talks with Crystal Palace for Marc Guehi as they want a centre-back in this summer. Following the departure of their defender named Jarell Quansah, they want a replacement who can be a great partner to Virgil Van Dijk. As Konate also expected to leave the side, Guehi’s transfer is crucial for them to fill up the empty space. Liverpool also have few other options but remain in talks for Guehi.
Liverpool are in negotiations with Crystal Palace over a potential move for centre-back Marc Guehi, as the Merseyside club look to reinforce their defence ahead of the new season. The Reds are prioritising the signing of a central defender following the departure of promising youngster Jarell Quansah and the possible exit of Ibrahima Konaté.
The Anfield hierarchy sees Guehi as a strong candidate to partner Virgil van Dijk at the heart of Liverpool’s defence. The 23-year-old England international has impressed consistently at Palace with his composure, athleticism, and leadership qualities — traits that align well with Liverpool’s style of play.
With Konaté likely to leave and limited options in central defence, signing Guehi has become increasingly important for new head coach Arne Slot. While the club is also exploring a few other options, Guehi remains their top target, and talks with Palace are ongoing.
