Overview

• Crystal Palace pulled out of a £35 million agreement with Liverpool on deadline day after failing to secure a suitable replacement, despite the defender completing a medical and the deal including a 10% sell-on clause.
• Guehi thanked supporters and said he is concentrating on his club duties, telling TNT Sports, “The sun goes up, the sun goes down, life goes on.”
• His deal is up at the end of the season and he is not expected to sign new terms, increasing the likelihood of a departure.
• Liverpool remain interested but had indicated no plan to revisit the transfer in January, and Manchester City, Real Madrid, Bayern Munich and Barcelona are also reported as suitors.
• Palace are assessing centre-back options for January, with reports linking Ousmane Diomande and Josh Acheampong, while recent signing Jaydee Canvot is not viewed as a direct replacement.
