Newcastle United could be making a move for Crystal Palace defender Marc Guéhi in January according to reports from the Telegraph. Despite being unsuccessful in securing a deal for the England international over the summer, Newcastle is looking to reignite their interest in the 24-year-old. However, the stumbling block seems to be Palace’s asking price of £70 million, which may need to be lowered for a deal to go through. With Guéhi’s contract expiring in 2026, Palace may be in a tricky situation if they do not let him go in the upcoming transfer window.
