Liverpool are continuing to be linked with a move for Crystal Palace star Marc Guehi on transfer deadline day.

The Reds look likely to have a busy end to the summer transfer window with plenty of business on the cards before the 7pm deadline.

Talks remain ongoing between Liverpool and Palace over a deal to sign Guehi before the deadline.



The Reds had made an offer worth £35million last week for the Eagles captain, although there have been suggestions that Palace would prefer a fee closer to £40million.

Guehi is out of contract at Palace at the end of the season, which has fuelled speculation that Liverpool could make a move this summer.

It has also been a possibility that the Reds could bide their time and strike a deal to sign the England international as a free agent instead.

With the deadline hours away, the ECHO has taken a look at the latest surrounding Guehi's potential transfer to Liverpool.

As reported by the ECHO's Paul Gorst, Guehi has been undergoing a medical in London ahead of a proposed move to Liverpool.

The Reds will be hoping to have a deal wrapped up before the 7pm deadline on Monday evening.

Liverpool and Palace have reportedly agreed a deal for Guehi ahead of the deadline.

It has been widely reported that an agreement worth £35million has been reached between the two clubs, which has allowed Palace to grant Guehi permission to undergo a medical ahead of a move to Anfield.

One of Palace's proposed replacements for Guehi is Brighton centre-back Igor Julio, but it has been reported that the Brazilian has turned down a deadline day move to Selhurst Park.

Igor, 27, had been at Palace's training ground for a medical and agreed to sign for the Eagles, but he has since produced a sensational U-Turn and instead wants to join West Ham.

The former Fiorentina centre-back is said to have been unsure about guaranteed minutes as part of Oliver Glasner's side.

He is in talks with the Hammers over signing on a season-long loan deal.

Palace manager Oliver Glasner was asked about the possibility of Guehi leaving the club before the deadline amid speculation of a potential move to Liverpool.

The Palace boss explained why he would not want Guehi to leave the club without having a replacement through the door.

"For playing a successful season we need Marc [Guehi] and it is not possible with one day left to find a replacement who can play in the Premier League," Glasner told Sky Sports on Sunday.

"You've seen out defensive setup, I have spoken about it quite often, this is our foundation and everyone knows exactly what he has to do.
