Overview

• Crystal Palace coach Oliver Glasner said Marc Guéhi will not sign a new deal and will leave next year, setting up a free transfer in the summer.
• Sky reporting identifies Guéhi as Max Eberl’s preferred option for Bayern’s defence, with competition reported from Real Madrid, Tottenham and Liverpool.
• Talks between Bayern and Dayot Upamecano are still unresolved with his contract up next summer, and Sky reports his camp is seeking a high salary plus a substantial signing fee.
• Cadena SER reports Real Madrid is monitoring the impasse and is prepared to offer a large signing bonus, though other Spanish outlets downplay the likelihood of a move.
• Bayern is evaluating alternatives in case of an exit, with media links to Guéhi, Nottingham Forest’s Murillo and Nico Schlotterbeck, even as Upamecano remains a Kompany regular.
