Real Madrid confident of securing Premier League star in major blow to Liverpool…

Real Madrid is increasingly optimistic about securing Premier League star Marc Guéhi, marking a significant setback for Liverpool.

According to The Sun, Real Madrid believes they will finalize the signing of the Crystal Palace defender once his contract concludes next summer.

The 25-year-old England international has become one of Europe’s most sought-after free agents, drawing substantial interest from Bayern Munich, Liverpool, and Barcelona.

However, reports indicate that Guéhi has a strong preference for a transfer to the Bernabéu.

Insiders close to Los Blancos suggest that club officials view Guéhi as the perfect long-term successor for the aging David Alaba and Antonio Rüdiger, as his composed distribution and tactical acumen align perfectly with Xabi Alonso’s defensive strategy.

Real Madrid is confident about acquiring Marc Guéhi.

Madrid believes that Guéhi’s leadership qualities, maturity, and proficiency with the ball make him an ideal fit for their defense.

Real Madrid’s confidence is also reportedly bolstered by Guéhi’s respect for several of his international teammates who are already playing in Spain.

The defender has developed a solid relationship with Jude Bellingham, whose achievements since arriving in Madrid are thought to have impacted Guéhi’s decision-making.

Guéhi would also have another England colleague in Trent Alexander-Arnold at Real Madrid, which could facilitate his adjustment to life in Madrid.

This situation represents a significant setback for Liverpool, who were on the verge of acquiring Guéhi during the summer transfer window and continue to express interest in signing him next year.

Reports indicate that Guéhi is not enthusiastic about a transfer in the middle of the season, preferring to evaluate his options in the summer when he can negotiate without restrictions.

The Crystal Palace star is preparing to leave Selhurst Park.

Currently, Crystal Palace seems to have accepted the likelihood of losing their standout defender, who has quietly become one of England’s most reliable players.

If Real Madrid can finalize the agreement as anticipated, they will have outmaneuvered several of Europe’s top clubs to secure the Premier League centre-back.

All attention will now be directed towards Liverpool and their response to this possible challenge in the transfer market.
