Liverpool announces a transfer plan for Marc Guehi in an attempt to sign Virgil van Dijk’s replacement

Newcastle United has made transfer proposals for Marc Guehi, but the player is now at Selhurst Park, giving Liverpool the chance to make a move later.

..Liverpool is willing to pay the £70 million that Crystal Palace is asking for Marc Guehi, so they will take the player into consideration, but not this summer.

With days left in the transfer window, the Eagles and Newcastle United are still in talks over a potential move for the England international. However, no deal has been reached. Several attempts by the Magpies to acquire the former Chelsea defender have been rejected, and Guehi was included in the starting lineup for Palace’s most recent Carabao Cup victory over Norwich City.

Due to their unwavering assessment, Crystal Palace has already traded Joachim Andersen, a central defender, to Fulham this month. After agreeing on a fee, the south London team, which paid £30 million for the Denmark international, is almost certain to sign French star Maxence Lacroix from Wolfsburg.

It’s still possible that Guehi leaves before the month is out, but the Toon Army’s duty might have become more challenging. Tuesday night’s injury to Chadi Riad against Norwich left Palace without a centre defender.

According to The Independent, Liverpool would think about making a move if Guehi stays with the Eagles over the deadline for transfers. Less than two years are left on the 24-year-old’s deal.

Joel Matip left Arne Slot’s team earlier this year when his contract expired, although Virgil van Dijk, Jarell Quansah, Joe Gomez, and Ibrahima Konate are still available. But the latter is already in the last year of his deal.

Although the Dutchman has maintained his composure regarding his future at Liverpool, his evasiveness will not comfort those who believe he is going to extend his stay. Van Dijk looks satisfied for the time being as he begins his first season at Anfield under a manager other than Jurgen Klopp.

The Liverpool captain remarked, “The thing is, I want to play the best season I can again.” “This year, I want to be significant and remain significant to the team. And we’ll see what occurs the next year.

“In my opinion, everything occurs for a purpose. Currently, my circumstances have not changed, but I am at ease with it; I still have the entire season ahead of me, so there’s no need for me to start worrying about anything else. I hope everything turns out well.”
