Liverpool continues to be linked with a move for the Crystal Palace defender Marc Guehi.

They came close to signing the 25-year-old England international during the summer transfer window, but the move collapsed in the end. It seems that they could return for Guehi in January.

Reds to sign Marc Guehi in January?

According to former Premier League scout Mick Brown, Liverpool will be even more determined to get the deal done in the coming weeks. They are in desperate need of defensive reinforcement, and Guehi would be an excellent addition for them.

Brown said on Football Insider: “But I’ve always felt Liverpool could try to get it done in January even if it isn’t a certainty any more.

“He is by far the best option out there at the moment, and he’ll be available for £35million or less, which is a bargain fee for a defender of that quality.

“When you consider the difficulties they’ve had in defense lately, I expect they’ll be even more determined to get that deal done as soon as possible.”
