The French defender is in the final year of his \u00a370,000 weekly contract at Anfield, and as Real Madrid lurks, he is terrified of following in the footsteps of Trent Alexander Arnold and joining Bossman&#8217;s European net.<\/p>\n<p>Either way, Liverpool will need to sign centre-back this month.<\/p>\n<h2 id=\"liverpool-lining-up-new-defender\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Liverpool_line_up_new_defenders\"><\/span>\n                        <strong>Liverpool line up new defenders<\/strong><br \/>\n               <span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>According to football insiders, Liverpool has learned that it should be enough to convince Crystal Palace to sell Mark Guehi this summer.<\/p>\n<p>    Liverpool believes Guehi will be a great addition to the backline that looks rather thin, but since the 25-year-old entered the final year of his contract, Hughes is reluctant to pay for that possibility.<\/p>\n<p>But Newcastle United and Tottenham Hotspur are also interested, so the Reds may want to bite a bullet and make their first formal offer.<\/p>\n<h2 id=\"why-liverpool-want-marc-guehi\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Why_Liverpool_wants_Mark_Guech\"><\/span>\n                        <strong>Why Liverpool wants Mark Guech<\/strong><br \/>\n               <span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>Guehi has been a pillar of Crystal Palace&#8217;s strength and solidity for the past four years, and after graduating from the renowned academy, he joined the club at a \u00a318 million price from Chelsea, but did not step through the doors of his first team.<\/p>\n<p>    As Eagles reporter Bobby Manzi points out, he is a &#8220;defense monster,&#8221; but Guehi is also a heavily underrated technician in an overtaking game to make a real difference to Liverpool over the next few years.<\/p>\n<p>According to FBREF, he was ranked in the top 9% of the top five league centers of goal contributions, top 12% of shot-making action, top 2% of balls and top 20% of take-ons per 90.<\/p>\n<section class=\"emaki-custom-block emaki-custom-note\" data-nosnippet=\"\">\n<div class=\"emaki-custom note\" id=\"custom_block_23\">\n<div class=\"custom_block-content note\">\n<p>The action of creating a shot is a game that leads to a shot.
