DONE DEAL: Liverpool Sign Marc Guéhi from Crystal Palace Liverpool have officially completed the signing of England international defender
Marc Guéhi from Crystal Palace, sealing one of the standout defensive deals of the season.
The Reds moved swiftly to finalise the transfer after weeks of negotiations, with Guéhi agreeing personal terms and successfully completing his medical before putting pen to paper on a long-term contract at Anfield. The move significantly strengthens Liverpool’s defensive options as they push on both domestically and in Europe.
A Major Defensive Boost for Liverpool
Guéhi, 24, arrives as one of the Premier League’s most consistent centre-backs in recent seasons. Known for his composure on the ball, leadership qualities, and excellent reading of the game, the former Chelsea academy graduate has been a standout performer for Crystal Palace since joining the club in 2021.
At Selhurst Park, Guéhi quickly established himself as a leader, earning the captain’s armband and becoming a regular in the England national team setup. His ability to play out from the back, combined with strong aerial presence and pace, makes him a natural fit for Liverpool’s high-intensity style.
Why Liverpool Moved for Guéhi
Liverpool’s recruitment team identified Guéhi as a top priority as part of a long-term plan to refresh and reinforce the defence. With his Premier League experience and maturity beyond his years, Guéhi is seen as a player who can make an immediate impact while also being a cornerstone for the future.
His arrival provides strong competition and depth at centre-back, while also offering tactical flexibility thanks to his comfort playing in both a back four and a back three.
Guéhi’s Reaction
Speaking after the deal was confirmed, Guéhi expressed his excitement about the move:
“It’s a massive honour to join a club like Liverpool. I’ve watched this team compete at the highest level for years, and I can’t wait to get started, play at Anfield, and give everything for the badge.”
Crystal Palace Farewell
Crystal Palace, meanwhile, have thanked Guéhi for his professionalism and leadership during his time at the club. His departure marks the end of an impressive chapter, with the Eagles now set to reinvest the funds as they plan for the future.
What This Means Going Forward
For Liverpool, the signing of Marc Guéhi sends a clear message of intent. It strengthens their title ambitions and underlines their commitment to building a squad capable of competing on all fronts. For Guéhi, it’s a step up to one of the world’s biggest clubs and a chance to showcase his talent on the biggest stages.
Liverpool fans can now look forward to seeing Marc Guéhi in red—another statement signing, officially done and dusted. 🔴

Liverpool deal ‘agreed’ as Marc Guehi update drops after Arsenal play their hand
As of today there is no confirmed transfer that Liverpool have signed Marc Guehi from Crystal Palace.
There are only ongoing transfer rumours and interest reports — but no official confirmation that the move has happened. �
Sky Sports +1
📌 Current Situation
Marc Guehi is still a Crystal Palace player and is expected to continue there this season — Palace boss Oliver Glasner has said he believes Guehi will remain at Selhurst Park this January. �
Sky Sports
His contract expires at the end of the season and he refused a new deal, so he’s likely to leave when that contract ends. �
Sky Sports
Liverpool remain interested, but according to reliable sources they are not planning to complete the transfer now; they may wait for Guehi to move as a free agent in summer 2026. �
Goal
🚨 Rumours (but not confirmed)
Liverpool had a bid in the past, and discussions have taken place, but Crystal Palace blocked the deal previously because they couldn’t secure a replacement. �
Goal
Other clubs (e.g., Arsenal, Manchester City and Real Madrid) have also shown interest. �

Arsenal transfer news: Ethan Nwaneri reaches exit decision as £80m agreement eyed
Mirror Football brings you a round-up of the latest transfer news surrounding Arsenal
Mikel Arteta is hoping his Arsenal team can go all the way this season
Arsenal may be in the midst of a title race but they are still working quietly behind the scenes on transfers. Mikel Arteta has already admitted the club is willing to spend in January should the opportunity arise.
Heading into the Premier League clash with Liverpool on Thursday night, the Gunners hold a five-point advantage over rivals Manchester City, with an opportunity to stretch that to eight points after 21 games with a win over the title holders.

Arteta’s stacked squad, thanks to a summer of heavy expenditure on quality players, ensured they came out of an injury-riddled past four months unscathed, as some key players recently made their return to fitness.
Yet, in a division as tough as this and with four trophies to fight for, there is always room for squad improvement. Here, Mirror Football brings you two of the latest transfer developments involving the north London club.

Ethan Nwaneri makes exit decision
Ethan Nwaneri reportedly wants to stay and fight for his place in the Arsenal team for the remainder of the season. The 18-year-old has attracted attention from Bournemouth this month, with the Premier League side eager to sign him on loan until the end of this campaign following the sale of Antoine Semenyo to Manchester City.
There is a sense that a temporary move would benefit Nwaneri given his lack of playing time this season. The Hale End academy product has been left out of the last few matchday squads after seeing his playing time decrease drastically compared to last season. He has made only six Premier League appearances since scoring four league goals in 26 matches last term.

With the likes of Martin Odegaard, Mikel Merino, Eberechi Eze and now injury returnee Kai Havertz ahead of the youngster in the pecking order, some believe Nwaneri needs a move to continue his progression. However, Arsenal do not want to sell the player due to his obvious talent.
The Independent reports Nwaneri feels he can learn more by being part of a serious title challenge, meaning he is happy to remain patient and assess his situation at the end of the season, when he may well have a league trophy to his name.
