Back in April 2025, when Newcastle contacted Liverpool about their young defender Jarell Quansah, the Reds quickly ended the conversation with a typical phrase that the player is the ‘future of the club‘, even thou he totally regressed in 2025 under Arne Slot and never made that leap into the first team. But now it seems that it was just about money. When Bayer Leverkusen offered enough cash (around 40 million euros), the negotiations started and it seems that they will finish soon and with success. But staying without Quansah and potentially some other defenders (like Joe Gomez) means that the Reds will look to bring another defender. And that‘s where Guehi and Diomande come into the equasion.🚨🔴 𝐁𝐑𝐄𝐀𝐊𝐈𝐍𝐆 | Liverpool expected to make a significant offer for Crystal Palace defender Marc Guéhi (24), reports @TeleFootball. 🏴 pic.twitter.com/S25nwiOzkp— EuroFoot (@eurofootcom) June 19, 2025 Since they will get their cash from the Germans, Liverpool can easily come and bid for Crystal Palace‘s defender. Marc Guehi will all but leave the Eagles as his conctract will rund down in 12 months and he already under observation from Newcastle and his former club Chelsea. Last season, the Magpies tried to sign him but Palace wanted stunning 65 million pounds and the deal was off. Now, the price will be lower and Liverpool can easily attract the England international.Anfield Dutch connection: Frimpong joins trio as Reds warm up for WirtzBut, Crystal Palace is a club which doesn‘t sell before they buy a replacement and that‘ where Ousmane Diomande fits in. The Ivorian defender is been connected with the Premier League clubs since last June, and whoever needs a center-back, Diomande will be on his shortlist. The Ivory Coast international is valued at around 40 million pounds, a fee that would smash the club’s current transfer record of 32 million for Christian Benteke in 2016, but if they could get the same amount (or a bit more) for Guehi, than it would be OK. Out of all these three connected transfers, it looks like Quansah will happen first and then we will see if Newcastle will fail (again) to bring Guehi due to Liverpool‘s approach.FIFA CLUB WORLD CUP 2025Matchday 2ThursdayPalmeiras – Al Ahly Cairo 2-0 (0-0)/Abou Ali (og) 49, Lopez 59/Inter Miami – Porto 2-1 (0-1)/Segovia 47, Messi 54 – Aghehowa 8(p)/FridaySeattle – Atletico Madrid 1-3 (0-1)/Rusnak 50 – Barrios 11, 55, Witsel 47/PSG – Botafogo 0-1 (0-1)/Jesus 36/19:00: (1.01) Benfica (17.0) Auckland (95.0)21:00: (4.40) Flamengo (3.50) Chelsea (1.85)Saturday00:55: (1.90) Los Angeles (3.45) Esperance (4.20)04:00: (1.22) Bayern (6.50) Boca Juniors (12.0)19:00: (9.00) Mamelodi (5.80) Dortmund (1.30)22:00: (1.20) Inter Milan (6.75) Urawa RD (14.0)Sunday00:55: (1.27) Fluminense (5.60) Ulsan (12.0)04:00: (2.15) River Plate (3.35) Monterrey (3.45)19:00: (1.22) Juventus (6.25) Wydad Casablanca (14.0)22:00: (1.22) Real Madrid (6.50) Pachuca (12.0)Monday00:55: (4.10) Salzburg (3.60) Al Hilal (1.88)04:00: (1.05) Man.City (14.0) Al Ain (35.0)***odds are subject to change***
