Liverpool have 'gentleman's agreement' to sign Marc Guehi with one hurdle left to clear

23 Dec 25

Liverpool have a 'gentleman's agreement' with Crystal Palace defender Marc Guehi after seeing his move collapse when the Eagles pulled out of a deal last summer, according to Sky Sports.

This story has been reproduced from the media. It does not necessarily represent the position of Liverpool Football Club.

But the Reds could yet face a nervous wait in January with the England international drawing plenty of interest from around Europe.

Guehi will be allowed to speak to clubs from abroad in a matter of days and can sign a pre-contract agreement from the start of 2026 as he enters the final six months of his deal with the Eagles.

Liverpool's route would only be to agree a deal with Palace to claim the defender's signature early rather than face a nervous wait for him to join for free in the summer.
