One of the main reasons why the Englishman hasn’t been sold by Steve Parish yet is that they haven’t signed a replacement for him.
Palace’s depth is already fairly thin, and if they sold the centre-back without a solid enough replacement, they may as well kiss any hopes they had for the 2025-26 Premier League season goodbye.

Even though Ibrahima Konate put in a fairly solid performance against Arsenal on Sunday evening, his first few appearances of the season cannot be forgotten about.
The centre-back was one of the main reasons why opposing players were bagging so many goals, with the former RB Leipzig man miles off the pace.
And, although Joe Gomez and Giovanni Leoni can both be used instead of Konate this season, it’s clear that a fee worth between £35million-£40million is a steal for Guehi.
