Crystal Palace defender Marc Guehi has been linked with a move away from the club this summer.
Newcastle United were very keen on securing his signature and they failed with multiple offers for the 24-year-old England international. However, a report from the Sun claims that Manchester City are now keeping tabs on his progress and they could look to make a move for him in the near future.
The Premier League champions could use more depth at the heart of the defence and he would be a solid acquisition for them. The 24-year-old will look to prove himself at the highest level and the opportunity to move to Manchester City will be quite attractive for him. They are one of the biggest clubs in the world and they have a proven track record of winning major trophies consistently.
The England international will be attracted to the idea of playing for them next season. It remains to be seen how the situation develops.
Guehi is unlikely to be a cheap acquisition and the Eagles will demand a premium for him. He has a contract with them until 2026, and it remains to be seen whether they can convince the player to sign an extension with the club.

If Crystal Palace fail to convince him to sign a new deal, Manchester City could look to move for him in the summer of 2025. The Eagles will be under pressure to sell him then, and they will not want to lose him on a free transfer in 2026. The England international could be available for a cut price deal in 2025.
Manchester City are unlikely to be the only club keen on signing him next summer and they are likely to face competition from other Premier League rivals. It will be interesting to see where the 24-year-old ends up.
