Crystal Palace could sensationally pull the plug on Liverpool's move for Marc Guehi after seeing a deal for Igor Julio collapse on deadline day in a dramatic late twist.

The Premier League champions have been in talks to sign Guehi since last week and finally struck an agreement worth £35million for the highly-rated England star on Monday.

But Crystal Palace's failure to get a loan deal for Igor over the line means Liverpool could be in store for an anxious end to deadline day.

A deal is now in jeopardy with the south Londoners encountering difficulties in their bid to replace Guehi, with a deal for Igor breaking down and a move for Jaydee Canvot yet to be concluded.

That's despite Guehi undergoing at least part of a medical ahead of his switch to Anfield after Liverpool and Palace struck an agreement for a player who will be a free agent in less than 12 months time.

Palace have a massive conundrum in that head coach Oliver Glasner - who has led the club to FA Cup success and a major European competition for the first time in their history - has been opposed to selling his captain from the start.

Teenage French defender Canvot is joining from Toulouse but Glasner sees him as a project rather than an immediate starter, while a loan for Igor Julio from Brighton has broken down.

Palace CEO Steve Parrish has spoken about the club owing money on players who have arrived at Selhurst Park in recent years, and his belief that it would be financially irresponsible to NOT sell Guehi if their valuation was met - something Liverpool have now done.

Glasner will be upset if Guehi goes and there is no replacement he deems of sufficient quality.

And there are growing fears in south London that a move to Bayer Leverkusen could well be on the cards after Erik ten Hag’s sacking earlier on Monday following just two Bundesliga games at the helm.
