Crystal Palace defender Marc Guehi continues to be linked with a move away from the club.

The 24-year-old England international was heavily linked with a move away from the club at the start of the season, but Crystal Palace managed to hold onto him. According to TBR Football, they have now informed the player that he needs to sign a new deal with the club or he will be sold in 2025.

The defender will likely be available for a more reasonable price next summer after Crystal Palace priced his suitors out of a move earlier this summer. Palace were demanding £75 million for the defender. He has a contract with them until 2026 and will enter the final 12 months of his contract next summer. The Eagles will be under pressure to sell him. They will not want to lose him on a free transfer.

The report states that Tottenham are keeping close tabs on his situation and they could look to make a move for the player. The North London club need to bring in defensive reinforcements and signing another central defender could sort out their defensive unit for the future.

Meanwhile, Liverpool and Chelsea are keen on the player as well. Joe Gomez has been linked with a move away from the club, and the Reds will have to replace him adequately. Guehi would be a quality acquisition for them.

Similarly, Chelsea need depth at the heart of the defence as well. Players like Benoit Badiashile have been linked with a move away from Stamford Bridge. It will be interesting to see if either of the three Premier League clubs decide to make a move for the 24-year-old England international next summer.
