Marc Guehi’s stock continues to rise, and Bayern Munich are now leading the race to sign the Crystal Palace captain—potentially beating Liverpool, Barcelona, and Real Madrid to his signature.
🔁 Transfer Tug-of-War
Guehi was close to joining Liverpool on deadline day, but Palace pulled the plug after failing to secure a replacement. Now, with his contract expiring in 2026, Bayern have made early contact with his representatives, according to Sky Germany’s Florian Plettenberg.
Max Eberl, Bayern’s sporting director, is a “big admirer” and sees Guehi as a long-term successor to Dayot Upamecano or Kim Min-jae.
🔴 Liverpool’s Missed Opportunity
Liverpool’s interest remains strong, especially after Giovanni Leoni’s ACL injury and Ibrahima Konaté’s uncertain future. But Bayern’s pitch—guaranteed minutes, Champions League football, and a clear succession plan—could sway Guehi.
“The sun goes up, the sun goes down. Life goes on,” Guehi said after the Liverpool deal collapsed. His calm demeanor has earned praise across the league.
🇪🇸 Spanish Giants Circle
Barcelona and Real Madrid are also monitoring the situation. Madrid need depth behind Antonio Rüdiger and David Alaba, while Barça lack cover beyond Pau Cubarsí and Ronald Araújo.
Guehi’s ability to play in a high line, his leadership, and his consistency make him a rare commodity—and his availability on a free next summer adds urgency.
🏁 What’s Next?
Palace may try to cash in during January to avoid losing him for nothing. Liverpool must act fast, or risk another Jude Bellingham-style miss.
