TRANSFER : Man Utd Target Marc Guehi

Manchester United have officially made an approach to Crystal Palace regarding the availability of defender Marc Guéhi, signaling their intent to strengthen their defense ahead of the 2025/26 season. The 24-year-old England international, who captained Palace to their historic FA Cup victory over Manchester City, is attracting significant interest from several top clubs.

Transfer Landscape
Guéhi is under contract with Crystal Palace until 2026, but reports suggest he is open to a move this summer. Manchester United’s interest is part of a broader competition, with clubs like Chelsea, Newcastle United, and Inter Milan also reportedly in the mix. Inter Milan, in particular, are considered strong contenders for his signature.

Crystal Palace have previously rejected substantial bids for Guéhi, including a £52 million offer from Newcastle United. The club is reportedly seeking a fee in the region of £65 million to £80 million for the defender. Despite their recent FA Cup triumph and Europa League qualification, Palace may be open to selling Guéhi to fund a squad overhaul.

Guéhi’s Profile
Marc Guéhi has been a standout performer for Crystal Palace since joining from Chelsea in 2021. He has made over 150 appearances for the club and has become a regular starter for the England national team. His leadership qualities and defensive prowess have made him one of the most sought-after defenders in the Premier League.

Looking Ahead
Manchester United’s pursuit of Guéhi will likely depend on several factors, including their qualification for the Champions League and the competition from other interested clubs. As the summer transfer window approaches, the race for Guéhi’s signature is expected to intensify
