After losing the Community Shield, Liverpool has initiated talks to sign Marc Guehi, English center back from Crystal Palace, in order to strengthen their defense before the end of the transfer window, as reported by Fabrizio Romano. The Reds, current Premier League champions, urgently need to bolster their defense due to the limited rotation options in the center-back position, where Ibrahima Konaté and Virgil van Dijk are the only different choices. **A needed reinforcement in Liverpool's defense** The defensive situation at Anfield requires swift action. Joe Gomez is still injured, Jarell Quansah departed to Bayer Leverkusen for £35 million, and the future of Konaté is uncertain with only one year left on his contract. In this context, Marc Guehi emerges as the ideal option. His contract with Palace expires in 2025, and according to sources close to the club, he has no intention of renewing it. This opens the door for an immediate sale to avoid him leaving for free next summer. **Crystal Palace willing to sell Guehi with a good offer** Crystal Palace's president, Steve Parish, recently acknowledged that he would be willing to let Guehi go if the club receives an attractive offer. Last season, Newcastle made four offers, with the last being £65 million, all of which were rejected. Now, the situation has changed. With Joachim Andersen's departure to Fulham and Guehi's contract nearing its end, Palace does not want to repeat the mistake of letting go of a player of this caliber without financial gain. Guehi understands that a year before the World Cup, he needs quality playing time to stay in the English national team. At Liverpool, he would have the chance to compete directly with Van Dijk and Konaté, although he also seeks real rotation guarantees. **A perfect market for Arne Slot's team** Coach Arne Slot believes his signing would bring solidity and long-term projection, especially in a team that has already reinforced several positions this summer with players like Jeremie Frimpong, Hugo Ekitike, and Florian Wirtz. Additionally, Liverpool continues to closely monitor Giovanni Leoni, a center back from Parma. However, convincing the player to leave Italy will not be easy. Meanwhile, interest in Marc Guehi seems more realistic given his knowledge of the Premier League and his desire to play for a title-contending club. Marc Guehi would be the cherry on top in a historic market for Liverpool, awaiting developments with Alexander Isak, who has informed Newcastle that he will not play for the club until they let him join Anfield Road.
