Liverpool prepare ‘significant offer’ for Marc Guehi | OneFootball

Liverpool are set to make a significant offer for Crystal Palace defender Marc Guéhi, as Jarell Quansah nears a transfer to Bayer Leverkusen.

The Premier League champions are nearing an agreement with Leverkusen for Quansah, with the fee north of €40m (£34m). Quansah is expected to sign a five-year deal with the German side and Liverpool will move swiftly to reinvest that fee.

According to The Telegraph, Liverpool are set to submit an offer for Guehi. The England international has just 12 months to run on his deal at Crystal Palace and the Eagles are set to cash in on the player. Palace have started talks with Sporting Lisbon’s Ousmane Diomande as a potential replacement.

Guehi has been subject of interest from several Premier League teams in recent windows. Newcastle United saw an approach rejected last summer and remain keen, while Tottenham Hotspur had an offer worth £70m, including add-ons, turned down in January. Chelsea have also expressed interest in re-signing their former academy graduate.

Liverpool’s proposal is likely to be significantly less than the £70m on offer from Spurs in January, given Palace’s negotiating position.

Guehi has been targeted to bolster their defensive options and provide competition for Virgil van Dijk, Ibrahima Konate and Joe Gomez.

The 24-year-old captained Palace to their first major trophy with FA Cup success last season and has become a regular with England. Guehi was a crucial part of the side that reached the final of Euro 2024 last summer.
