Overview
- Jamie Redknapp called on Liverpool to sign the Crystal Palace centre-back in January after a 3-3 draw at Leeds, arguing Marc Guehi is a realistic fit.
- Redknapp cited Ibrahima Konaté’s form and limited cover with Joe Gomez’s injury history and Conor Bradley’s minutes as reasons to add a defender now.
- Crystal Palace chairman Steve Parish has signalled it is more likely Guehi leaves for free next summer than in a January sale.
- Guehi’s £35 million deadline-day move to Liverpool collapsed in the summer when Palace failed to secure a replacement, and he has not agreed a new contract.
- Reports suggest Liverpool may have reopened talks, though top transfer reporters have not verified this, and outlets link other major clubs, including Real Madrid, with interest.
