Real Madrid, Barcelona Eye Guéhi After Liverpool Deal Collapses

                                              

Real Madrid and Barcelona are set to compete for Crystal Palace’s Marc Guéhi after his £35 million transfer to Liverpool fell through on deadline day, September 2, 2025. The 25-year-old center back’s move collapsed when Palace manager Oliver Glasner refused to let his captain leave without a replacement, leaving Liverpool empty-handed. 

With Guéhi’s contract expiring in summer 2026, the Spanish giants are eyeing a pre-contract agreement from January 1, 2026, as foreign clubs can negotiate with him then. Guéhi’s strong performances for Palace and England have made him a prime target, with his market value likely to attract further interest. This development also blocked Liverpool’s Joe Gomez from joining AC Milan, adding to the Reds’ defensive transfer woes
