Liverpool is currently being hit in pursuit of Crystal Palace defender Mark Guech.
Crystal Palace wanted to properly replace players, but they were unable to bring in the replacement of their choice. Liverpool’s move against the 25-year-old defender has now been caught in the spot, according to a report by The Times.
Liverpool had already agreed to a fee with Crystal Palace and they wanted to complete the move.
Crystal Palace Stall Mark Guech Move
It will be interesting to see if Crystal Palace has pulled a moving plug to keep the 25-year-old in the club. The report claims that players have already started medical care in Liverpool, and how the situation will develop is still unclear.
If Liverpool misses the defender late in the window, that would be a big blow to Liverpool. They needed to improve their defensive forces, and England International would have been an exceptional acquisition. The player is devastated to let the move go.
Guehi wants to move
The 25-year-old was an exception for Crystal Palace, but he wants to go ahead and join a bigger club now. He wants to fight for a massive trophy, and Liverpool will be able to provide him with that platform. The player is the final year of his contract and it makes sense for the club to sell him at nominal prices this summer. Losing a player of his quality on a free transfer will be a blow to Crystal Palace next summer.
The Eagles are currently stalling on the move as they can’t find a quality exchange. It will be interesting to see how the situation develops. The transfer window will close and close for more than a few hours, with Liverpool hoping to surpass its contract.
