Marc Guéhi‘s potential transfer to Liverpool is facing renewed uncertainty after Crystal Palace‘s agreement to sign Igor Julio from Brighton unexpectedly collapsed, according to multiple reports. Palace had anticipated Julio as a replacement for Guéhi,and his late decision to join West Ham has thrown the deal into doubt.
The situation represents an unexpected snag in the closing hours of the transfer window. Palace had believed Julio was committed to the move, but he ultimately opted for West Ham, a club currently experiencing turmoil and facing early-season relegation concerns, with manager Graham Potter’s position reportedly under pressure.
As of late Thursday, Crystal Palace have permitted Guéhi to continue his medical with Liverpool, but sources indicate increasing doubts surrounding the transfer’s completion. Liverpool had previously indicated a willingness to sell Joe Gomez should Guéhi arrive at Anfield, perhaps offering a pathway to resolve the current impasse.
