Liverpool is planning to take a step before Crystal Palace-back Marc Guehi, and a deal can be concluded for considerably lower than agreed on Deadline Day.
Guehi remained bitterly disappointed that a long proposed move to Anfield in the last hours of Deadline day went through.
Crystal Palace corresponded to a deal with a value of £ 35 million, plus a 10 percent clause, only to withdraw from manager Oliver Glasner who threatened to stop if his captain was sold.
Guehi leaves that restless in Selhurst Park and, in the last year of his contract, pending a movement may already be in January.
Liverpool will make a new approach for the 25-year-old, with the MailLewis Steele reports that the champions are retaining their interest.
A new offer for the defender could be in the transfer window of January, whereby those conditions will almost certainly fall far below £ 35 million that was completed on Monday.
This is able to leave Guehi months later on a free transfer, where Palace knows that the mid -season is their last chance to be in.
OPINION: Why Liverpool could always afford to wait for Marc Guehi
Much will still depend on the London Club that can sign a replacement, with AC Milan’s Strahinja Pavlovic, a well -known target that could step into the void.
Athletics’s James Pearce has passed on the word of senior sources on Anfield that they were’ surprised and disappointed about the late U-turn of Palace instead of angry ‘.
That comes with a recognition of the needs of Glasner as a manager and, probably, the already strong bank of center backs in the first team of Arne Slot.
But despite the fact that Giovanni Leoni has added to Virgil van Dijk, Ibrahima Konate and Joe Gomez, Pearce also adds that it is “very likely”, Guehi will come to them in the future.
It is still unclear whether Liverpool would make a new approach in January or would just wait until the summer when the English international is available for free.
This can depend on what will happen in the coming months – for both Liverpool and Palace – because all major injuries can speed up plans to strengthen the end line of lock.
Just like a decision about Konate’s own future, still in conversation with the Frenchman about a new contract, but still to make significant progress in an extension of a deal that will expire next year, as a real Madrid loom.
