Liverpool have had a superb switch window to date, and they won’t be completed with signings even when Alexander Isak joins from Newcastle. A brand new central defender is required after the sale of Jarrel Quansah to Bayer Leverkusen, and at this stage, their prime goal stays Crystal Palace’s Marc Guehi.
Guehi, who has attracted curiosity from Chelsea and Tottenham in latest weeks, has entered the ultimate 12 months of his contract at Selhurst Park, and as such, there’s a perception {that a} cut-price deal might be achieved. Liverpool tried to do it earlier in the summertime, however their advances had been halted by Crystal Palace.
However in keeping with Mick Brown (by way of Soccer Insider), Liverpool’s plan to make one other transfer to signal Guehi within the later phases of the summer season switch window.
“All the speak at Liverpool has been about Isak in the meanwhile. However from what I’m informed, Marc Guehi continues to be very a lot on their radar and I’d count on them to make a transfer earlier than the tip of the window.
“I believe they regard Guehi as simply as vital as Isak by way of the profit to their squad. They’re not completely satisfied about Konate, he makes too many errors and may very well be on his manner out when his contract runs out subsequent yr. They’ve let Jarell Quansah go, and Joe Gomez isn’t going to be the long-term reply at centre-back.
“In the event that they’re going for each trophy accessible to them, they will’t afford to take probabilities on the again, and Guehi would symbolize an excellent addition for them. He’d be a prime signing and I count on they’ll be able to make a transfer at some stage.”
It stays to be seen whether or not Liverpool can get their man, but when so, their squad for the 2025-26 season could be extremely sturdy.
