Overview

• Liverpool and Crystal Palace agreed a fee of about £35 million with a 10% sell-on and Guehi completed a medical before Palace withdrew the deal due to the lack of a like-for-like replacement.
• Guehi told TNT Sports he has moved on from the disappointment, saying, “The sun goes up, the sun goes down, life goes on,” and he thanked Palace fans for their support.
• Palace confirmed the signing of 19-year-old Jaydee Canvot on a four-year deal, though he is not seen as an immediate successor, with reported targets including Ousmane Diomande and Josh Acheampong.
• Liverpool indicated they would not revisit the transfer in January, though reports note that stance could be reconsidered following centre-back Giovanni Leoni’s season-ending ACL injury.
• With Guehi entering his final contract year and free to negotiate overseas in January, reports say Liverpool scouts are pushing alternative options such as Maxence Lacroix while other elite clubs remain linked to the defender.
