Overview
- Liverpool are viewed by Palace as the only club truly positioned to complete a January deal, with Bayern Munich and others still monitoring, according to multiple reports citing Sky Sport Switzerland.
- Crystal Palace are reported to value their captain at around £35 million and are now open to cashing in rather than risking a free exit later under expiring‑contract conditions.
- The Reds narrowly missed out on Guehi on deadline day in the summer after Palace halted the move due to a lack of a replacement.
- Manager Oliver Glasner has confirmed Guehi will not sign a new contract, and the player can open pre-contract talks with foreign clubs from January under FIFA rules.
- Palace have identified Sporting CP’s Ousmane Diomande as a potential successor, though Sporting are expected to resist a mid-season sale, while Liverpool’s defensive form has heightened their interest despite public caution from Arne Slot.
