Overview

• Liverpool submitted a formal £35m flat offer for the Palace captain, with talks continuing ahead of the Monday evening cutoff.
• Palace immediately countered by asking for £35m plus £5m in bonuses and a 10% sell-on clause to meet their valuation.
• Manager Oliver Glasner publicly stated Guéhi "has to stay" for now, citing the difficulty of finding a like-for-like starter at short notice.
• Joe Gomez featured in discussions as a potential solution for Palace, but Liverpool rejected a loan and are reluctant to sell the versatile defender.
• Guéhi is in the final year of his contract and has not agreed an extension, and Palace are lining up defensive recruits, with a deal for Toulouse’s Jaydee Canvot progressing.
