But former Premier League midfielder Don Hutchinson believes Liverpool have ‘blown their chance’ to sign Guehi and expects the Palace centre-back to end up at another club.

Guehi could have his pick of clubs in January (Picture: Getty) ‘They’ve blown their chances of landing him. I understand that, because you can’t turn it down, but Guehi had to be the other priority. ‘This January has to be the marker with Guehi if they want to finish in the top four. ‘They need to try and pull out all the stops to land him in January because by the summer time, I think he’ll have plenty of options to choose from, and they could be more attractive to him and his family.’ For more stories like this, check our sport page.
