Liverpool held talks with Crystal Palace over a potential deal for Marc Guehi earlier this month and Sean Dyche has now shared a new theory about the England star's future

Crystal Palace defender Marc Guehi's move to Anfield could be the ultimate bargain if Liverpool play the waiting game.

David Ornstein reveals Marc Guehi WILL join Liverpool ✈️ this summer 😳 if a deal is AGREED 💰️ with Crystal Palace!

Liverpool are set to complete the signing of Crystal Palace and England international defender Marc Guehi by the end of the season.

Virgil Van Dijk leaned on his experience to effectively defend open spaces with the absence of a true defensive midfielder ahead of the back four, but as the full-backs bombed on and the midfield was vacated, it was his Liverpool team-mate Ibrahima Konate who looked to struggle with the vast acres of Anfield grass he had to cover.

Tim Sherwood believes Chelsea would be silly not to rival Liverpool for the signing of Marc Guehi after the long-term injury suffered by Levi Colwill. Colwill was expected to be a key player again for Enzo Maresca’s side but will now miss the majority of the season with an ACL injury.

A week ago we were hearing Guéhi to Liverpool was close and a £35M fee was likely. A week on it’s the same story.
