Liverpool are reportedly eyeing a move for Crystal Palace defender **Marc Guehi**, who could be available for a reduced fee of **£40-50 million** next summer. According to sources from *Football Insider*, Palace may have to lower their asking price as Guehi’s contract will have just one year left by the summer of 2025. While Palace demanded over **£70 million** during recent negotiations with Newcastle, they might be forced to accept lower offers to avoid losing him for free.
Liverpool are seen as frontrunners for Guehi’s signature, especially as they plan for life after **Virgil van Dijk**, who is now **33 years old**. Though van Dijk has expressed interest in extending his stay at Anfield, Liverpool manager **Arne Slot** is preparing for the future. Guehi is viewed as a potential successor, with the England international reportedly preferring a move to Liverpool over Newcastle.
Guehi’s performances have impressed both Liverpool and Newcastle, but it seems the player sees the Reds as a bigger opportunity, making them his preferred destination.
