Marc Guehi will join Liverpool from Crystal Palace in a £35million deal.

The Reds agreed the deal late in the window and the 25-year-old will complete his medical on deadline day ahead of a move after talkSPORT reported over the weekend about the Reds making an opening offer for the England international.

Guehi made it a winning goodbye to Palace fans on Sunday night by scoring in the south London side's 3-0 win away at Aston Villa.

And 24 hours later, the 25-year-old has sealed a move to Anfield to become one of two high-profile transfers the Merseyside outfit have made on deadline day.

Alexander Isak also arrived at Liverpool, with the Premier League champions forking out a British record £125m to prise him away from Newcastle.

The two transfers, when official, will take Liverpool's summer spending spree to a staggering £457.5m having brought in eight new players.

No other club in history has ever spent as much money in a single window.

Chelsea previously held the record after splashing out £434.5m on 11 new players in 2023.

Guehi's move also comes weeks after Palace sold Eberechi Eze to Arsenal.

It will come as a blow to manager Oliver Glasner, who spoke after the win over Villa about the need to keep their captain.

"I told the chairman we have to keep Marc if we want to play a successful season.

"We have no chance to find the right replacement in one day.

We all agreed that we just sell Marc if we have the right replacement in the building.
