The defender of Crystal Palace, Marc Guehi, was linked to the distance from Selhurst Park this summer – but what could his options be?
Sky Sports News Recently reported that the name of Guehi had reappeared as part of Liverpool. The Reds have a long -term interest in the Eagles captain – but any prospect of signing it this summer is currently remote.
Arsenal and a number of other clubs also like Guehi but Sky Sports News Understand that, if he had to move, he would like to be assured as a starter of the first regular team and accept costs with Crystal Palace will not be simple.
Other media reports have also suggested that he could stay in Palace, where he has a year left for his current agreement.

Mark McAdam gives us the latest Liverpool transfer updates, with Milos Kerkez before a medical on Tuesday, the more an agreement being agreed with Bayer Leverkusen for Jarell Quansah – while Guehi is on the Radar of the Reds
With the move from Jarell Quansah to Bayer Leverkusen, get closer and closer, the name of Guehi is linked to Liverpool.
Recent reports have suggested that talks on a new contract for Ibrahima Konate have stalled and if the central defensive partner of Virgil Van Dijk was to leave this summer – the Frenchman has only one year in his agreement – then Liverpool could possibly guarantee Guehi the place of departure that he would have asked before the next year World Cup.
You can see why Liverpool followed the versatile Guehi, which, like Van Dijk, is a central defender on foot, playing on the left side of the defense, but who is just as comfortable using one or the other foot.
The Liverpool scouts will have noted during his four seasons in Selhurst Park that the 24 -year -old is a clever play reader, extremely calm under pressure and an incisive passer -by of the rear – all the vital qualities of a high -level central defender.

Guehi takes up our challenge as a sticker book! We ask him big questions of his football career so far, including who he thinks he is the best defender of all time
“You see how aggressive” lock “and steal possession,” said Michael Beale, who trained Guehi while he was developing at the Chelsea’s Academy, said Sky Sports. “But he is very calm when he defends.
“His reading of the game and his athletics bring him a courtyard on his center-center. He shows enormous confidence to play on the left side and his Chelsea technical education means that he can use his left foot, although he dominated on his right foot.”
And the sports director Richard Hughes will surely also have been impressed by the skills of the obvious leadership of Guehi as captain of the palace, as well as while representing England, in particular during his exhibitions out of competition during euros last summer while the Reds are looking for a long -term successor to Van Dijk as skipper and defender.
No guarantee for Guehi in Arsenal
Guehi aims to be part of the World Cup team in 2026 of Thomas Tuchel
There would be no first team football guarantee for Guehi in Arsenal.
William Saliba and Gabriel Magalhaes are a central defense couple of Mikel Arteta and have formed the base of one of the most mean defenses of the Premier League in recent seasons.
There is not many sign of any movement from it either. Gabriel recently signed a new long -term agreement to extend his stay in northern London, while the Gunners would also be eager to extend the Saliba contract to the Emirates.
There has been a lot of speculation connecting Real Madrid to a decision for Saliba in recent years and the Gunners have had a lot of injuries to face, especially in defensive positions, but regular football will be a priority for Guehi.
He is now a regular on the team of Thomas Tuchel in England and, with the World Cup next summer on the horizon, the 24 -year -old wishes to keep his place in the initial alignment.
He will surely be wary of a move in a club where a starting place is not guaranteed.

Staying in Crystal Palace for another season could be the best option for Guehi.
Not only is he a guaranteed starter – vital if he wants to make the 2026 World Cup team – but he is also the captain and the beloved of the club.
And he leads Crystal Palace to tangible success. The club is the title of FA Cup holders – winning more silverware than Arsenal last year – and, all, will play in the Europa League next season.
Knowing the affinity of Guehi for the Eagles, he will surely want to drive the club to Europe and help push Crystal Palace on the Premier League board so that they can ensure new European competition in the years to come.
A point of collision for the club will be the fear of losing one of their most important players for free next summer, with other contractual talks – even if it is only to obtain costs once the time.
But staying in Selhurst Park would check down a lot of boxes for both parties.
What do Guehi figures say?
Guehi ranks very well among the Crystal Palace team in several categories.
One of its greatest forces is in the air. He was in the lead among his teammates for the heads and air duels won in the Premier League last season, ranking second for the authorizations finished.
Among the league as a whole, Guehi still ranks well. He was in the Top 20 for head authorizations and the air duels won. For goods won in the defensive third, he had ninth.
But he can also play with the ball at his feet. Guehi was in the lead for the passes attempted and completed among the team of Crystal Palace, and had the most keys.
