Since the transfer window first opened, it’s been clear that Liverpool were going to have a massive summer.

The Reds have now spent close to £300million on improving their first-team squad with Hugo Ekitike the latest player to be added to Arne Slot’s ranks.

Last season, Liverpool were already one of the hardest teams to beat in the Premier League, and now, with all these new players joining the club, it’s hard to see how they won’t come away with the title once again.

And now, while speaking on the Market Madness Podcast, journalist Ben Jacobs shared an update on the future of Marc Guehi amid the recent interest shown in him by Liverpool.

“Crystal Palace have told Marc Guehi in the last 48 hours that their preference is for a sale,” he said.

“This is knowing that he will not sign a new deal, and clubs have now been informed that Crystal Palace would welcome bids because they don’t want to lose him on a free transfer.

“Liverpool could be one option.

It’ll be interesting to see whether they also react to Chelsea opening talks for Jorrel Hato because he’s another name on their list, but Guehi and Liverpool could develop.”

There’s no hiding from the fact that Guehi is England’s best centre-back at the moment.

However, Liverpool are only likely to make a bid for the centre-back if the price tag for him drops over the next couple of weeks.
