Tottenham is now keeping a careful eye on the situation surrounding the future of a Premier League player who is reluctant to sign a new deal. Tottenham requires more defensive players Spurs only have three full-time central defenders at their disposal, but Ange Postecoglou decided not to add another one during the summer transfer window.
Ben Davies has been utilized in center defense by Postecoglou, but he may be eager to add further support there in January. Now that it’s clear that one of the team’s long-term goals might be up for grabs, Tottenham has allegedly been made aware of the prospect.
England star’s prospects are uncertain
Marc Guehi is the man in question; according to TBR Football, the center-back is not interested in agreeing to a new deal with Crystal Palace following the collapse of his summer transfer to Newcastle. The defender has allegedly been informed by the Eagles that he would be moved as soon as possible if he chooses not to extend his current contract, which expires in 2026. It is claimed that the Eagles will probably lower their asking price in January after requesting £75 million from the Magpies in exchange for the England international in the summer.
Tottenham might be in for a struggle.
TBR Football, however, indicates that Liverpool is also aware of Guehi’s predicament and does not believe Spurs will have a free run at him. The Reds are believed to be admirers of the Palace player and are eager to add a central defender to their roster. The report further states that the 24-year-old’s availability might ‘spark a transfer frenzy’ in January, with other teams also potentially entering the race.
