- Palace pulled the plug on ليفربول swoop
- Five European giants circle كريستال بالاس قبطان
- Reds still hopeful of free transfer deal
Palace chairman Steve Parish pulled the plug, unwilling to sanction the move without securing sufficient reinforcements for manager Oliver Glasner. The U-turn left Liverpool stunned, turning what could have been a perfect transfer window into one with a lingering sting.
Guehi’s contract at Selhurst Park runs out next summer, and with no appetite to pen fresh terms, the collapse has opened the floodgates for Europe’s elite. Foreign suitors can begin talks from January 1, placing الدوري الإنجليزي الممتاز rivals at a disadvantage in the race to secure his services. As a free transfer, Guehi would not only command a bigger salary package but also a sizeable signing bonus, making him an irresistible prospect for the continent’s top sides.
وفق The Mirror, German champions بايرن ميونيخ are the latest powerhouse to throw their hat into the ring, keen to strengthen their defensive ranks with Guehi’s commanding presence. Meanwhile, both ريال مدريد و برشلونة are monitoring closely, each eager to snap up the إنجلترا international on a free next summer. Italian heavyweights Inter Milan and يوفنتوس are also hovering, ready to exploit the situation and tempt Guehi with a الدوري الإيطالي adventure. With five of Europe’s biggest names in the hunt, Liverpool’s hopes of an uncontested return for the defender appear slim.
Guehi himself had reportedly made his position crystal clear: he was open to joining Liverpool immediately, but if the move did not happen, he would see out his contractand leave for free. That stance has all but ruled out fresh negotiations over a new Palace deal, leaving the south London club facing the prospect of losing their captain without a fee. For Guehi, the collapsed move is simply a delay in his career trajectory rather than a derailment. He is aware of the financial rewards and broader options available as a free agent, butLiverpool remain firmly in his thinking.
Despite the chaos of deadline day, Guehi has been all smiles while on duty with England at St George’s Park, laughing with teammates and training hard ahead of the Three Lions’ clash with Andorra في.يوم السبت.
