"Liverpool failed to sign Marc Guehi from Crystal Palace on deadline day despite agreeing on a fee with the Eagles. Crystal Palace pulled the plug on the deal after failing to secure a quality replacement for the 25-year-old central defender. Liverpool are keen on signing the player, and they are likely to return for him in future. He will be a free agent next summer."
"He was very keen on the move this summer, and he had already completed his medical with the Premier League champions. It would be a major step up in his career, and he would get to compete at the highest level. There is no doubt that he is one of the best defenders in the league, and he deserves to compete in the UEFA Champions League regularly."
Crystal Palace withdrew from a deadline-day agreement to sell Marc Guehi after failing to find a quality replacement for the 25-year-old central defender. Liverpool had agreed a fee and remain highly interested, with sources indicating the club will likely renew their pursuit. Guehi completed a medical during summer interest and is reported to be keen on joining the Premier League champions. He will become a free agent next summer, creating potential January and summer scenarios for Palace and Liverpool. Liverpool's need for defensive depth and Ibrahima Konaté’s contract situation increase the appeal of pursuing Guehi.
