AliousCrystal Palace chairman Simon Parish has cautioned Newcastle United that they’ll need to pay “superstar money” to acquire Marc Guehi.
Newcastle has made Guehi their primary defensive target after being linked with several centre-backs.
The 24-year-old’s value has increased following impressive performances for Palace and England, including at Euro 2024.
Newcastle has reportedly made three bids for Guehi, with the latest offer believed to be worth £55 million plus £5 million in add-ons.
While not officially confirming the rejection of this bid, Parish implied it was insufficient in an interview with Sky Sports News.
Parish emphasized that Guehi is highly valued at Palace and that any interested club would need to make a very compelling offer.
However, he also hinted that a deal could be possible if it benefits both Guehi and Palace, praising the player’s loyalty and acknowledging his career ambitions.
The article also mentions Newcastle’s previous interest in another Palace defender, Joachim Andersen.
Fulham has reportedly made a £20 million offer for Andersen, who previously played for them on loan.
However, Andersen has stated he’s “happy where he is” at Palace, with two years left on his contract.
Andersen acknowledged the interest from other clubs but emphasized his satisfaction with Palace’s progress and his current situation, maintaining that he remains a Palace player for now.
