signing Guehi despite a deal for the England international falling through at the end of the summer transfer window.<\/p>\n<p>After a difficult start to the season in which Liverpool have already conceded an alarming 17 goals in 11 league games, Slott could sign a new centre-back as soon as possible.<\/p>\n<p>Guehi is nearing the end of his contract with Crystal Palace and is understandably the subject of speculation again as January approaches.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Arne_Slotts_response_to_a_question_about_Marc_Gehi\"><\/span>Arne Slott&#8217;s response to a question about Marc Gehi<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>Asked about signing Guehi or any other centre-backs, Slott said he was not thinking about it at the moment, but hinted that perhaps sporting director Richard Hughes was thinking about it&#8230;<\/p>\n<p>Still, the overall message from Slott is that a new contract is of little concern at the moment for the Dutch tactician as he looks to get his team&#8217;s season back on track.<\/p>\n<p>But at the same time, managers are known to be cautious about how they talk about transfers in public, so it may not be entirely true that Slott hasn&#8217;t given at least a little thought to a potential deal for Guehi or a similar one.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\"

when they were winning more games earlier in the campaign, so they certainly need to bring in a top quality player like Guehi as soon as possible.<\/p>\n<p>Virgil van Dijk is not getting any younger and has had a below-average performance this season, while Ibrahima Konate may be distracted as he nears the end of his contract at Anfield.<\/p>\n<p>Guehi could be an ideal long-term addition to improve Liverpool&#8217;s defence, but they may also need to sign another centre-back.<\/p>\n<p><!-- Article End -->\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Liverpool manager
