Crystal Palace Confirm That Marc Guehi Will Stay At The Club

Crystal Palace manager Oliver Glasner has confirmed that Marc Guehi will be staying at the club on deadline day, despite multiple bids from Newcastle.

Marc Guehi Stays With Crystal Palace

Newcastle have been interested in signing Marc Guehi all summer but despite their repeated attempts to sign the defender, Crystal Palace will keep their man this summer.

Guehi has become one of the most sought after centre backs in the league during the last season and his summer with England at the Euros only boosted his profile.

The 24-year-old featured in five of England’s six Euro 2024 fixtures and he was widely regarded as one of the best players to feature for Gareth Southgate in the tournament.

After an impressive summer and a good start to the season for Palace, Guehi recently captained his side against Norwich in the EFL Cup with an impressive 4-0 win sending them through to the third round.

Speaking today in a press conference, Crystal Palace manager Oliver Glasner thanked the owners for their work, as he confirmed Guehi will stay with the Eagles this season.
