"Liverpool have now been dealt a blow in their pursuit of the Crystal Palace defender Marc Guehi. Crystal Palace were hoping to replace the player adequately, but they have failed to bring in their preferred replacement. According to a report from The Times, Liverpool's move for the 25-year-old defender has now hit a snag. Liverpool had already agreed on a fee with Crystal Palace and they were hoping to complete the move."
"The report claims that the player has already started his medical with Liverpool, and it remains to be seen how the situation develops. It would be a major blow for Liverpool if they missed out on the defender this late in the window. They need to improve their defensive unit, and the England International would have been an exceptional acquisition. The player will be devastated to miss out on the move as well."
"The 25-year-old has been exceptional for Crystal Palace, but he wants to move on and join a bigger club now. He wants to fight for major trophies, and Liverpool will be able to provide him with that platform. The player is in the final year of his contract, and it makes sense for the club to sell him for a nominal price this summer."
Liverpool's pursuit of Crystal Palace defender Marc Guehi has stalled despite an agreed fee, with Crystal Palace delaying the sale due to failure to secure a preferred replacement. The player has already started his medical with Liverpool, but the club's reluctance to sell without a quality successor has put the move in doubt. The transfer window closes in just over a couple of hours, raising the stakes for a late completion. Guehi, an England international in the final year of his contract, wants to join a bigger club to compete for major trophies. Crystal Palace risk losing him for free next summer.
