Newcastle chiefs are preparing a financial bid to bring Crystal Palace talent Marc Guehi to St. Mary during the January market. The English defender has caught the eye with his good performances in the Premier League, but also in the European that we left behind, with the English national team. Some English media have reported that Guehi prefers to join Liverpool, but a move to Newcastle cannot be ruled out. Especially considering the offer that the club is preparing.
According to reports, Newcastle are expected to offer around 80 million pounds in the January market to secure the defender's card. Crystal Palace have so far rejected 3 offers from Newcastle for Marc Guehi, the latest in the figures of around 65 million pounds. We recall that the most expensive purchase in the history of Newcastle is that of Alexander Isak for the figure of 63 million pounds from Real Sociedad. Should Guehi join the club, he would become the most expensive player in Newcastle's history.
Meanwhile, regarding the footballer's desire to join Liverpool, the problem is the readiness of "The Reds" to compete with Newcastle for Guehi's card. Arne Slot's side are also monitoring the defender but are not expected to make a bid in January. Meanwhile at the end of the season, the competition for the Crystal Palace ace is expected to be greater, and this is one of the reasons why Newcastle will try to close a deal in the winter market.
We remember that Crystal Palace lost 2 of the best players in the last market, Michael Olise who joined Bayern Munich, and Joachim Anderson, who joined Fulham. However, Palace have managed to successfully keep Guehi and Eberechi Eze in the team, at least so far.
