Liverpool Pursues Crystal Palace Defender Guehi Amid Transfer Negotiations

Crystal Palace captain Marc Guehi is a key target for Liverpool as the Premier League champions seek to strengthen their defense. Liverpool has made offers for Guehi, but negotiations stalled due to a valuation gap, with Palace asking for £45 million and Liverpool unwilling to pay more than £35 million. Guehi, in the final year of his contract, is reportedly open to the move, and talks are expected to resume soon. Meanwhile, Palace is preparing for his possible departure by scouting replacements such as Manchester City's Manuel Akanji and Monaco's Mohammed Salisu. Former Palace defender James Tomkins has publicly endorsed Guehi as a superior option compared to Liverpool's current defender Ibrahima Konate. Additionally, Crystal Palace is enhancing fan engagement through a subscription service offering live match coverage and exclusive content via their official app.
