"We know how good the likes of Real Madrid and Juventus are at landing free agents, Pete O'Rourke said on Football Insider. They do specialise in that, to try and sign players on free transfers, usually with the offer of a huge signing-on fee as well. Obviously it's hard to compete with the likes of Real Madrid when it comes to signing [under-contract] players as well."
"Liverpool failed with a deadline day move to sign the player, and they are expected to return for him in future. It will be interesting to see if Liverpool try and sign the player for a nominal price in January. They could wait until the summer transfer window to sign Guehi for free. The player completed his medical with Liverpool on deadline day, but Crystal Palace pulled the plug on the move after failing to sign a replacement."
Real Madrid are targeting Crystal Palace centre-back Marc Guehi and could offer a substantial signing-on fee to secure him at the end of the season. Juventus and Liverpool are also interested, with Real Madrid and Juventus proven at landing free agents using large signing-on fees. Liverpool undertook significant work on Guehi and completed a medical on deadline day, but Crystal Palace halted the move after failing to sign a replacement. Liverpool may attempt a January nominal-fee deal or wait to sign him on a free transfer next summer. Guehi is viewed as a reliable defensive option and potential Konate replacement.
