Marc Guehi transfer saga twist: Crystal Palace 'likely' to lose Liverpool and Real Madrid target in January

Marc Guehi is reportedly 'likely' to leave Crystal Palace in January amid transfer interest from Liverpool and Real Madrid. The defender was on the cusp of sealing an Anfield move on transfer deadline day, only for Palace to pull out of the deal at the eleventh hour. Madrid are hoping to sign him on a free next summer but the Eagles may try and get a fee for him in early 2026.

Guehi in demand as contract ticks down
The England international is still at Palace after a Liverpool move was scuppered at the last moment, with the defender set to become a free agent next summer. The centre-back has shown no signs of wanting to extend his stay at the Eagles, as the Reds and Madrid circle over a 2026 transfer.

January exit on the cards for Guehi
Palace's hopes of securing a big-money fee for Guehi are all but over as he is in the last year of his contract. Rather than losing him for free at the end of the season, though, TEAMtalk claims that Liverpool are poised to make a move for him in January.
