Liverpool Reportedly Want Marc Guehi After Crystal Palace Complete £15m Deal

Liverpool have reportedly set their sights on signing Marc Guehi after Crystal Palace announced the signing of defender Joachim Andersen for £15 million.

According to reports, Liverpool manager Jurgen Klopp is an admirer of Guehi's talent and believes he could be a valuable addition to his squad.

Guehi Impresses for England U21s

Guehi, 21, has impressed for England's U21 side since making his debut in 2021. The centre-back has earned rave reviews for his performances at international level.

Guehi was part of the England U21 team that reached the semi-finals of the 2021 UEFA European Under-21 Championship.

Guehi's Impressive Form for Crystal Palace

Guehi has also been in impressive form for Crystal Palace since joining the club from Chelsea in 2021.

The defender has made 31 appearances for the Eagles in all competitions, scoring one goal.

Liverpool's Need for Defensive Reinforcements

Liverpool are in need of defensive reinforcements following the departures of Dejan Lovren and Ki-Jana Hoever in recent years.

Klopp is keen to add a young, talented defender to his squad who can challenge Virgil van Dijk, Joel Matip, and Ibrahima Konate for a starting place.

Guehi's Potential Role at Liverpool

If Guehi were to join Liverpool, he would likely be used as a backup to Van Dijk and Matip.

However, the defender could also provide competition for Konate, who has struggled with injuries since joining the club from RB Leipzig in 2021.

Crystal Palace's Impressive Summer Transfer Window

Crystal Palace have had an impressive summer transfer window so far, signing Andersen, Cheick Doucoure, and Malcolm Ebiowei.

The Eagles are looking to build on their 12th-place finish in the Premier League last season.
