Marc Guehi was rightly frustrated at the late collapse of his £35 million move to Liverpool, but the Crystal Palace captain has taken a philosophical approach. Guehi was all set to become Liverpool’s final signing of the summer after a deal worth £35 million plus a 10 percent sell-on clause was agreed, only for Palace to pull out at the last minute.



But speaking to TNT Sports ahead of Palace’s UEFA Conference League opener against Dynamo Kyiv, Guehi insisted the drama was behind him. “Fortunately for me, I’m at a football club that has helped me and given me so much, so it does make it that much easier.” Guehi also joined Palace manager Oliver Glasner for pre-match press conference duties and was faced with similar questions on his situation.

I definitely feel it.” Liverpool are expected to revive their interest and could do so as early as January, with Sky Sports reporting that there is an acceptance at Palace that they will lose Guehi in 2026. Parish reportedly approached Richard Hughes over a deal during the Community Shield, but after initial talks in the following days the London club’s co-owner “went quiet for a couple of weeks” and “ignored Liverpool’s advances.” Guehi’s calmness over the issue is no doubt aided by the knowledge that he will be in a stronger position over his future if he allows his contract to run down.
