Overview
- City have agreed an initial £20m fee plus add-ons with Palace, and sources say Guéhi will have a medical on Sunday after accepting a five-and-a-half-year contract.
- Pep Guardiola said the move is close but not yet official after City’s 2-0 defeat at Manchester United.
- The push for Guéhi intensified as John Stones, Rúben Dias and Joško Gvardiol are sidelined and Nathan Ake has limited availability.
- Crystal Palace manager Oliver Glasner condemned the timing, saying he learned of the sale a day before a match as a 2-1 loss to Sunderland extended a 10-game winless run.
- If completed, the move would be City’s second January addition after Antoine Semenyo, with both players ineligible for Tuesday’s Champions League trip to Bodø/Glimt.
