Newcastle Opens Talks with Palace for Guehi Transfer.

Newcastle United have contacted Crystal Palace about signing England centre-back Marc Guehi.

The 24-year-old Marc Guehi, who shone in six of England's seven Euro 2024 games, has attracted interest from top Premier League clubs. He formed a strong defensive pairing with John Stones, missing only the quarter-final against Switzerland due to suspension.

Newcastle United have become the first club to formally approach Crystal Palace about Guehi, who has made 111 appearances for the Eagles since his move from Chelsea in July 2021. 

With two years left on his contract, Palace is keen to avoid losing him on a free transfer.

Newcastle is also eyeing Liverpool's Joe Gomez as they search for a centre-back this summer. 

Crystal Palace, known for acquiring young talent from the Championship, will be eager to secure Guehi's future.
