Marc Guéhi Set to Leave Crystal Palace as Contract Runs Down
Crystal Palace captain Marc Guéhi looks increasingly likely to leave Selhurst Park at the end of the season, with just nine months left on his current deal. Unless there is an unexpected breakthrough in talks, the England international defender will not renew his contract.
📋 Contract Situation
Guéhi has rejected new contract offers from Crystal Palace.
His current deal expires in June 2026, but with just nine months left, Palace risk losing him for free next summer.
Club chairman Steve Parish has admitted a sale may be the only option, while manager Oliver Glasner has insisted the player should stay to maintain defensive stability.
💰 Transfer Interest
Liverpool submitted a £35 million bid in the last transfer window, which Palace rejected after failing to secure a replacement.
The deal was close, with Guéhi reportedly undergoing parts of a medical, but collapsed late on deadline day.
Other top Premier League sides are monitoring his situation closely, with a January move still a strong possibility.
🎙️ Player’s Stance
Guéhi has remained professional, continuing to lead the team as captain and stating that he is “focused” on his duty at Palace. However, his refusal to extend his contract suggests his long-term future lies away from Selhurst Park.
⚽ What’s Next?
Palace must decide whether to cash in during January or risk losing a key asset for free in the summer.
With Liverpool and other elite clubs circling, the England defender’s next move will be one of the most closely watched transfer stories of 2025.
