Liverpool will wait until next summer before going back in for Marc Guehi, it has been claimed.

The Reds saw a deadline day move for the centre-back collapse at the eleventh hour, with Crystal Palace keeping hold of their captain.

A fee of around £35milllion had been mentioned, with Guehi out of contract next summer.



Guehi has no plans to extend his Palace contract, which expires next summer, and it appears the reigning Premier League champions are happy to wait.

Liverpool still have experienced duo Virgil van Dijk and Ibrahima Konate marshalling their defence, though Konate's contract also expires next summer and he has been linked with Real Madrid.

Joe Gomez is also still at Anfield, while Italian centre-back Giovanni Leoni completed a move from Parma in August.

Guehi is said to have been left angry at the manner in which his deal collapsed.

"That was on July 9 (the season started), it’s August 31 and there is no replacement in the building so it’s clear one part of the agreement is not fulfilled that means we can’t sell Marc."

Guehi, who has remained a regular starter for Palace this season, was also in England's starting XI to face Andorra on Saturday.
