Story byGuehi likely to see out season at Crystal PalaceThe Football FaithfulSun, December 28, 2025 at 11:39 AM UTC·2 min readMarc Guehi is unlikely to leave Crystal Palace in the January transfer window with the defender instead set for a free transfer exit in the summer. Guehi’s contract at Crystal Palace expires at the end of the current campaign and the England international has informed the club he will not extend.

Liverpool have been linked with renewing that interest in January, but a transfer has been described as unlikely. The BBC’s Senior Football Correspondent, Sami Mokbel, has said Guehi is expected to see out the season in South London. Foreign clubs can approach Guehi over a pre-contract agreement in January, while the defender can command a large signing-on fee should he move as a free agent.“My understanding at the moment is that he probably is expected to stay at Palace until the end of the season when his contract expires,” Mokbel told BBC Match of the Day.
