Marc Guehi is reportedly close to signing for Manchester CityLiverpool and Arsenal may be forced to identify new transfer targets after Manchester City made a breakthrough in their pursuit of Marc Guehi. He has shown no intention of signing a new deal at Crystal Palace and looks destined to leave Selhurst Park in the near future. Guehi was very close to joining Liverpool in the summer but the deal fell through because Palace were unable to sign a replacement. As such, the likes of Liverpool and Arsenal will have to consider alternative options. Palace wanted Diomande in the summer and could revive their interest in him if Guehi leaves, but it's unlikely that he would pick them over Liverpool or Arsenal.
