Liverpool’s transfer window just got a little more dramatic. Marc Guehi is once again the name making the rounds at Anfield, as Crystal Palace’s leadership reluctantly admits they might have to cash in if their captain refuses a new deal. For the Reds, this is like seeing your dream sneakers back in stock—you don’t hesitate; you sprint. Earlier in the summer, the Merseyside club flirted with the idea, but now the romance is back on, and the proposal might come before the window closes.
Guehi: The Calm in a Defensive Storm
Let’s be honest—Liverpool’s back line hasn’t exactly been a brick wall lately. Arne Slot, the man tasked with steering the post-Klopp era, is well aware that an extra dose of composure (and someone who can win aerial duels without resembling a windmill in a storm) could be the key. Guehi ticks the boxes: Premier League experience, defensive leadership, and the ability to keep his cool when the opposition’s front three is breathing down his neck.
Isak Drama vs. Guehi Drama
Meanwhile, over at Newcastle, Alexander Isak seems to have written his goodbye letter in invisible ink—everyone knows it’s there, but the club insists they can’t see it. Liverpool’s interest in Isak adds spice, but with Newcastle unwilling to budge, Guehi becomes the more realistic dish on the transfer buffet. Palace may huff and puff about selling their skipper, but their “sign or go” stance leaves the door wide open.
Why He Could Be the Signing of the Summer
In a window full of rumors—Donnarumma possibly packing for Manchester, Xavi Simons flirting with Premier League moves—Guehi’s potential arrival could actually solve a glaring problem for Liverpool. No drama, no vanity signing, just a solid, reliable defender who makes the back four breathe easier. And in a season where every dropped point will be magnified, that might be priceless.
