Sky Sports: Crystal Palace believes that only Liverpool may seek to sign Gueye in the winter window, while other teams are waiting for visa exemptions

November 20th Sky Sports reported that Crystal Palace believes that only Liverpool may pursue the purchase of team captain Gueye after the winter window opens.

Liverpool’s £35 million deal to introduce Gueye fell through at the last moment at the summer window deadline, but they are still interested in the England international. Crystal Palace believes that other mainstream European teams interested in Gueye are only willing to sign him as a free agent next summer.

Whether Liverpool prefers to acquire Guei directly in January or sign him on a free transfer next summer remains to be seen, but the Crystal Palace captain has attracted the attention of many European giants including Bayern, Real Madrid, and Barcelona. Guey can sign a preliminary contract with clubs outside England on January 1, 2026.

Liverpool currently faces hidden dangers in the defense. The new central defender Leoni introduced this summer suffered a long-term injury, and Konate's future is also uncertain, and his contract will expire next summer.
