Bayern Munich are among the clubs interested in signing Marc Guehi at the end of the season, talkSPORT understands.

Guehi saw a deadline day move to Liverpool collapse in dramatic circumstances after Crystal Palace pulled the plug at the 11th hour having agreed a £35million fee.

Guehi had even undergone a medical in London and had a car waiting to take him to Merseyside for an official unveiling. 



The Eagles skipper will be available as a free agent when his Selhurst Park contract expires next summer having made it clear he will not sign a new deal.

Liverpool retain an interest in taking centre-back Guehi to Anfield.

However, one of the reasons they were keen to get the deal done this summer is because he can sign a pre-contract agreement with overseas clubs in January.

Emi Martinez could yet get his move from Aston Villa.

Martinez looked to have played his last game for Villa after being left out of Sunday's 3-0 defeat at home to Crystal Palace amid interest from Manchester United.

United opted to invest in youth by signing Senne Lammens from Royal Antwerp instead of Martinez.

But the Argentine World Cup winner is wanted by Galatasaray and the Turkish transfer window remains open until September 12.

Gala were keen on Ederson but the Manchester City icon joined rivals Fenerbahce instead.

Villa are expected to allow Martinez to leave if they receive a suitable offer to help with UEFA spending rules.

Leeds came close to signing Harry Wilson on a permanent deal in the final hours of the window before Fulham pulled the plug.

talkSPORT understands Leeds met the Cottagers' quoted asking price over the weekend.

However, Fulham were focused on incomings which delayed any movement. 

By deadline day, Fulham signalled they wanted to renegotiate and Leeds made an improved offer.

There was an initial agreement resulting in a proposed Deal Sheet signed by Leeds and Wilson and a private jet was even put on standby to transport the Welsh international to Yorkshire 

But Fulham communicated the transfer was off just minutes before Monday's 7pm deadline after their own move for Chelsea's Tyrique George collapsed.
