One Chelsea target has been made available by his current club who are willing to listen to the offers from interested player. But, the player is willing to join Chelsea’s league rivals.
The star in question here is Marc Guehi of Crystal Palace. Guehi joined Palace from the Blues and has made a big name for himself. He is now one of the best defenders in Premier League.
Guehi is also a regular member of England national team now. He played all matches for his country in the Euro 2024 campaign. This resulted in him being on the wishlist of many top clubs. One of them is the player’s former club Chelsea.
The Blues are having a great season and have improved to a vast extent. They are doing really well offensively but still lack a spark in defence. They have failed to keep clean sheets which is causing a little concern.
The club is aware of this situation and willing to make some key defensive signings. One or two defenders are expected next year along with new goalkeeper. Guehi is one of the top targets for the West London club.
Chelsea get key boost in the pursuit of Marc Guehi
According to The Sun, Crystal Palace are expecting offers for Marc Guehi. They have him tied with a contract running until 2026 and hence will want to sell him next year instead of losing him for free. This will come as a good news for the Blues.
But, the report further states that Guehi is willing to wait for a move to Liverpool. The Reds are also expected to make defender signing next year. Virgil van Dijk will be out of contract at the end of season and as of now there are no talks about renewal.
Even if Liverpool extend Van Dijk’s contract, they will need to find a replacement for him very soon due to his age. Guehi can be a very good addition as he has experience of playing in Premier League. He can be good replacement for Van Dijk without dropping quality.
