Liverpool might revisit their interest in Crystal Palace defender Marc Guehi in the January transfer window after a failed attempt last summer. A $47 million deal was agreed between Liverpool and Palace for Guehi's services in September, but the move collapsed when Palace couldn't find a suitable replacement.

Since the botched transfer, speculation has been rife about Guehi's long-term future and whether Liverpool might make another bid for the centre-back. Sky Sports has provided new details on Guehi's situation amidst ongoing rumors about his potential destination, claiming that Palace is preparing itself for Guehi's possible departure, whether that occurs in January or in the summer.

Liverpool's intentions for the January transfer window remain unclear, as does whether they're contemplating bringing in a fresh central defender.
