Liverpool ready to launch bid to sign £75m defender Marc Guehi from Crystal Palace and refuse to give up on Newcastle star Anthony Gordon

Per <a href="https://www.thesun.co.uk/sport/29667733/liverpool-marc-guehi-joe-gomez-newcastle-anthony-gordon-transfer/" target="_blank">The Sun</a>, the Reds are looking to bolster their backline this summer and are now in contention to sign Guehi from Crystal Palace, who is likely to cost £75m (€89m). They, however, will <a href="https://www.goal.com/en/lists/newcastle-marc-guehi-england-euro-2024-star-crystal-palace-exit/blt7b242156f890b9ce" target="_blank">face competition from Newcastle United</a> in their pursuit of the English centre-back.

WHAT HAPPENED?

Other than Guehi, the Merseyside giants also remain interested in signing Newcastle sensation Anthony Gordon. They are reportedly ready to<a href="https://www.goal.com/en/lists/joe-gomez-liverpool-future-failed-gbp45m-transfer/bltec392b727fa96c4e" target="_blank"> include Joe Gomez as a part of the deal </a>for the winger. The Magpies reportedly have identified a replacement in case Gordon exits St. James' Park in this window. They will likely go after The Eagles star Eberechi Eze who has a £60m (€71m) release clause in his current contract.

THE BIGGER PICTURE

After spending close to £100m on midfield additions like Alexis Mac Allister, Dominik Szoboszlai, Wataru Endo and Ryan Gravenberch last summer, Arne Slot's side are yet to <a href="https://www.goal.com/en/lists/completed-liverpool-transfers-2024-25/blt0dea3738b55a4272#cs692740a92339038d" target="_blank">announce a new signing</a> in the ongoing transfer window. They, however, have parted ways with players like Joel Matip and Thiago Alcantara.
