Liverpool are on the brink of signing Crystal Palace defender Marc Guehi as their summer overhaul continues, IsaGoal understands.
The 24-year-old has informed Palace he will not sign a contract extension, with just one year left on his current deal.
Palace have reluctantly accepted that a summer sale is now inevitable.
The Reds have already raised £35m through the sale of Jarell Quansah to Bayer Leverkusen and inserted a €60m buy-back clause.
Guehi is viewed as Quansah’s ideal replacement by new manager Arne Slot and sporting director Richard Hughes.
According to multiple sources, including Fabrizio Romano and A Bola, Liverpool have held talks with the England international’s camp, presenting their long-term vision and Slot’s plan for him as a core defensive option.
Guehi is said to want guarantees over game time before sealing the switch.
Liverpool’s pursuit has been boosted further by Crystal Palace agreeing a €55m club-record deal to sign Ousmane Diomande from Sporting CP as Guehi’s replacement.
The Ivorian defender will sign a five-year contract and is excited about joining the Premier League.
Diomande’s €80m release clause wasn’t enforced by Sporting, making Palace’s deal a major breakthrough and clearing the path for Guehi’s departure.
Palace are seeking around £45–50m for Guehi, but with his contract expiring in 2026 and no extension forthcoming, Liverpool aim to negotiate that fee down.
As per Romano, talks between all parties will intensify this week, with Liverpool now considered firm favourites to land the centre-back.
