Anfield Buzzing: Liverpool Land £35m Deal for Marc Guehi – Isak Next in Line
Anfield is alive tonight as Liverpool close one of the most talked-about defensive transfers of the summer. The club has officially agreed a £35 million deal with Crystal Palace for Marc Guehi, with an additional 10% sell-on clause built into the agreement.
The England international, 24, has established himself as one of the Premier League’s most reliable defenders, and now becomes the latest key signing of the Arne Slot era. Guehi is currently undergoing his medical in London, with all paperwork expected to be completed before midnight. Once finalised, he will sign a long-term contract at Anfield.
According to sources, Guehi’s decision was never in doubt. He had already reached personal terms with Liverpool at the start of August and rejected approaches from rival Premier League clubs, making it clear his heart was set on Anfield.
Liverpool’s defensive rebuild has been a clear summer priority. With Joel Matip’s departure and ongoing fitness concerns for Ibrahima Konaté, the Reds needed a proven, Premier League-ready centre-back. Guehi not only brings strength and composure at the back but also long-term stability as the club looks to compete on all fronts.
And this is only the beginning. Liverpool’s hierarchy are pushing ahead with a double transfer statement: Guehi secured, and Alexander Isak still targeted as the marquee attacking addition. Newcastle’s striker remains the priority up front, with talks expected to accelerate now that the defensive deal is wrapped up.
For supporters, excitement is at fever pitch. A fortified backline, the prospect of one of Europe’s deadliest forwards arriving, and a manager intent on making his mark—the Slot era has begun with fireworks.
🔥 The summer revolution at Anfield is officially underway.
