Liverpool stirs up transfer window with 6th new signing

Liverpool are said to have reached an agreement in principle with Crystal Palace centre-back Marc Guehi.

According to Football Daily, Guehi has agreed personal terms and is ready to sign a contract with Liverpool until 2030. This marks an important step in manager Arne Slot's efforts to strengthen his defence.

The England centre-back, who represented his country at Euro 2024, has been regarded as one of the most solid and consistent defenders in the Premier League in recent seasons. With the departures of players such as Nat Phillips, Trent Alexander-Arnold and the upcoming Jarell Quansah, Liverpool are in the midst of a major rebuilding of their defence.

Guehi just had an impressive season with the FA Cup championship.

Guehi has all-round defensive skills, good game planning and impressive footwork. It is worth noting that Guehi is said to be keen on leaving and has personally pushed for a move to Anfield.

Former Everton chairman Keith Wyness said it was an “easy negotiation” for Liverpool, while also stressing that Crystal Palace were also willing to sell as Guehi had just one year left on his current contract.

After helping Liverpool win the Premier League in his first season in charge of the club, Arne Slot is being backed by the board of directors by bringing in five quality new recruits including Florian Wirtz, Jeremie Frimpong, Milos Kerkez, and two goalkeepers Armin Pecsi and Freddie Woodman. Up to now, the "Red Brigade" has spent 213 million euros.
