AliousHere’s a paraphrased version of the text:Despite Liverpool’s search for a new centre-back, they are not planning to pursue Crystal Palace’s Marc Guehi this summer.
Guehi, who impressed for England in Germany and has been a standout for Palace, has attracted interest from several clubs.
Liverpool needs defensive reinforcements following Joel Matip’s departure and uncertainty surrounding Virgil van Dijk’s future.
While manager Arne Slot has been pleased with Sepp van den Berg’s pre-season performance, the young defender could still leave for the right price.
However, TBR Football reports that Liverpool won’t join the bidding war with Newcastle United for Guehi.
Newcastle has already opened negotiations for the England international, whose rumored £60m price tag may have deterred Liverpool.
The Reds are still expected to strengthen their defense before the transfer window closes.
They might turn their attention to other targets, such as Goncalo Inacio from Sporting CP, whose asking price has recently been reduced.
Liverpool’s transfer team, led by Richard Hughes, may have alternative options in mind for a late push to bolster Slot’s squad.
Meanwhile, club insiders have commented on Liverpool’s lack of summer signings so far.
