Liverpool signed Alexander Isak from Newcastle United against a British record transferring costs, but failed to secure the services of Marc Guehi of Crystal Palace, despite the English international who underwent a medical one with them on Monday.
After agreeing with a transfer costs of £ 35 million with a clause of 10% with the Reds, the Eagles pulled the plug after they could not find a replacement for their captain, who will now remain in the club until January.
Daily Mail journalist Lewis Steele has reported That Marc Guehi has already emerged as the top priority of Liverpool for 2026, and they will try his signing in the winter or as a free agent at the end of the current season.
Guehi is Given at £ 40 million on the transfer marketAlthough if he left Selhurst Park in January, his asking price would be considerably lower, since in the last few months of his contract with Crystal Palace he would be.
Liverpool will be confronted with strict competition
Next year Liverpool will be confronted with a strong competition to sign Marc Guehi as the will of Chelsea and Tottenham Hotspur, who had previously been enthusiastic about the 25-year-old, could also tackle the interest in him, given his low price.
That said, it can still be the transfer of the Reds to lose because they already had an agreement with the defender with regard to personal conditions and possibly next season a regular place in their team.
Ibrahima Konate remains connected to Real Madrid with his contract that also ran down, so if the Frenchman left, Marc Guehi would be the perfect replacement and a cheap acquisition for the Premier League champions.
It will be interesting to see if Liverpool is willing to pay a few million pounds in the winter to sign it halfway through the campaign, or rather wait until Guehi would be available as a free agent.
