Liverpool are planning a fresh bid to sign Marc Guehi on a free transfer next summer, with Manchester City set to join the race to sign the England defender. Guehi, 25, was close to a £35m move to Liverpool, which fell through at the last minute when Crystal Palace called off the deal. That has opened the door for other clubs to sign him as he becomes a free agent when his contract expires next summer.
This situation has attracted the attention of major European clubs such as Real Madrid, Barcelona, Bayern Munich, Inter Milan and Juventus, who are all ready to make a move for the Palace captain. However, Liverpool will try to reignite their interest and at Anfield, they feel they have a huge advantage in the race to sign Marc Guehi.
Manchester City have also expressed an interest in Marc Guehi, considering him a top-class defender. During the last transfer window, it was clear that Guehi had decided to either move to Liverpool or stay and leave as a free agent. Therefore, City were not in the running at the time, but the situation will change next summer.
Marc Guehi has highlighted his commitment to Crystal Palace this season and fans have been very supportive of his handling of the transfer situation. He will be able to demand a bigger contract with clubs competing for his signature, as it is rare for a player of this calibre and age to end up as a free agent.
