Liverpool’s summer window appears to be falling nicely into place - and the same could be said of a deal for Marc Guehi.

Guehi has worn the number six shirt during his entire time at Selhurst Park following a switch from Chelsea in 2021.
He has also become the custodian of the shirt on a number of England camps.

The defender also opted for the number 5 shirt during a loan spell with Swansea, a number he also wore during his time in Chelsea’s academy and with the England youth ranks.

As it stands, Ibrahima Konate currently owns that shirt and looks unlikely to let it go of his own accord.
And while Guehi looks primed for a move to Merseyside, it appears that he is not going to allow himself to get wrapped up in a transfer saga.
"I think the most important thing is just always doing the best that I can for this football club," the defender said about his future last year.
"I come in every day and I try to be the same.
