Premier League
Chelsea has decided to join the intense race for the signing of Marc Guehi, the solid defender from Crystal Palace, who is also on the agenda of Tottenham Hotspur and Newcastle United. According to The Mirror, the English center-back is one of the most coveted names for the upcoming summer transfer market, and his club will have to make a decision about his future.
In the past January, Crystal Palace received offers for Guehi but chose to reject them with the intention of keeping their defense intact until the end of the season. However, time is not on the side of the London team, as the player's contract expires in the summer of 2026, and if not renewed, selling him would be the only option to avoid losing him for free later on.
His price could reach 50 million euros
The market value of the defender is around 50 million euros, a figure that does not seem to deter the interested clubs. Chelsea, seeking to strengthen its defensive line with a reliable player, sees in Guehi an ideal option, although the competition with its Premier League rivals promises to be fierce.
With Tottenham and Newcastle equally determined to bolster their defense, Guehi's situation emerges as one of the sagas of the upcoming transfer market. Now, Crystal Palace must consider whether to renew their defender or seize the opportunity to generate a significant sum of money.
