Newcastle ‘make third transfer bid of around £60m’ to Palace

Newcastle have made a third bid of up to £60 million for Marc Guehi which is at least £10m short of Crystal Palace’s valuation of the defender, according to a report.

The Magpies have offered £55m with £5m in potential add-ons for the England international, BBC Sport has said, adding that Palace value Guehi at £70m.

Palace are said to have turned down a second offer last week approaching £50m for the Chelsea academy product, who became England’s first-choice partner for John Stones in central defence on their way to the final of Uefa Euro 2024.

Class, yet again.

Guehi transfer, stats

Guehi has two years left on the five-year contract he signed when he joined Palace from the Blues for a fee rising to £20m in 2021.

Born in the Ivorian capital of Abidjan, Guehi moved to England as a one-year-old and began his youth career with Bromley-based Cray Wanderers.

A star of Chelsea’s trophy-winning under-18 side, Guehi was captain as England reached the Euro Under-17 final in 2017 and scored in the final as they won the Under-17 World Cup soon afterwards.

Across 111 Palace appearances, Guehi has scored five goals and become a regular captain, helping Palace achieve a defensive record that was bettered by only four top-flight teams in 2023-24.

In the absence of Harry Maguire at Euro 2024, Guehi established himself as a key player for England little more than 15 months after making his debut.
