Man City Seal £20m Guehi Deal as Liverpool Confront Defensive Squeeze in Final Week

The transfer has sharpened scrutiny on Liverpool's thin centre-back options as the January deadline approaches.

Overview

  • Marc Guehi has completed a £20 million move from Crystal Palace to Manchester City during the January window.
  • Liverpool, who were close to signing Guehi last summer, are under public pressure to add a centre-back before the deadline, with Arne Slot indicating he expects little late business.
  • Liverpool have blocked a proposed Andy Robertson switch to Tottenham to preserve defensive cover during their injury issues.
  • AFP reports confirm Marc Guehi and Antoine Semenyo cannot feature for Manchester City in the Champions League league phase and would only be eligible from the knockout rounds.
  • Manchester City will keep Omar Marmoush this month, with Football Insider reporting the club has decided against sanctioning an exit to maintain squad depth.
