WHY FLORENTINO PEREZ ABORTED THE MARC GUEHI DEAL—AND WHAT IT MEANS FOR LIVERPOOL
Real Madrid has reportedly pulled out of the race for Marc Guehi, handing Liverpool a massive boost in their pursuit of the star.
Real Madrid isn't planning to grab Marc Guehi in the next transfer window, says DefensaCentral. This is great news for Liverpool, since they've really wanted the Crystal Palace captain for a while now.
Everyone knows Guehi is a top-notch defender in the Premier League. He's just gotten better and better since he left Chelsea for the Eagles in 2021. Because he always plays so well, lots of teams all over Europe are interested in him.
Liverpool almost signed him last summer, but Oliver Glasner stopped the deal. Even though he stayed at Palace then, he won't be there after this season.
His deal ends this season, and Guehi has said he won't be signing a new one. Rumour has it he has a deal with Liverpool to join them for free next summer.
Even though Liverpool seems about to get him, Real Madrid could still try to get him in January. Since Antonio Rudiger's and David Alaba's contracts are ending, the Spanish team wants a new centre-back in 2026.
Real Madrid steps aside in the Guehi chase.
Guehi is their top choice, since Florentino Perez really likes the 25-year-old. Because of his deal with Liverpool, Real Madrid can't wait until summer. Perez would have to jump in and make a move in January to get him.
Palace will probably lose him for free next summer, so they might let him go in the middle of the season. That way, they could get some cash for one of their best players. But even though Real Madrid could try to sign him in January, they probably won't.
Perez doesn't usually like to make moves in the winter. He likes to wait until the end of the season before changing his team much. So, the white team has decided not to sign Guehi.
THE TRENT BLUEPRINT: WHY XABI ALONSO THINKS HE CAN SIGN IBRAHIMA KONATE FOR FREE
Xabi Alonso is reportedly pushing Real Madrid to sign Ibrahima Konate. Can Liverpool keep their star defender from a free exit?
_1766681151.webp)
Xabi Alonso wants Real Madrid to try and get Liverpool's 26-year-old defender, Ibrahima Konate, on the cheap next year.
A report from Fichajes, a Spanish source, says that Real Madrid's manager, Xabi Alonso, is really pushing the club to sign Ibrahima Konate. The French player's contract is up at the end of the season, and he hasn't signed a new one with Liverpool yet.
Everyone knows Real Madrid needs better defenders. Getting the French guy could really help them out. But some reports say Real Madrid isn't planning on going after Konate.
The French player has proven himself in England and is good enough to do well in La Liga, too. Getting a player this good for free would be a big win for Real Madrid. Meanwhile, Liverpool is trying to work out a new contract with him. It will be interesting to see if they can do it in the next few weeks.
Konate can start making deals with other clubs next month. It would be bad for Liverpool if they lost him. They paid around £36 million for him, so losing him for nothing would be a disaster.
The Premier League winners just lost Trent Alexander-Arnold to Real Madrid for free and haven't been able to find a good replacement. They don't want that to happen again.
Liverpool needs to keep Konate.
Liverpool has to do everything it can to get the French player to sign a new deal. They definitely have what it takes to help him reach his goals. The Reds even helped him win the league title last season.
Meanwhile, Real Madrid hasn't been doing so well for over a year. They want to be one of the best teams in Europe again. They need to fix their problems soon, and signing the Liverpool defender would really help.
The French guy is only 26, so he still has a lot of good years ahead of him. He could play great for Real Madrid and help them defend better. David Alaba and Antonio Rudiger aren't getting any younger, and Real Madrid will need to replace them with younger players. Signing the Liverpool defender would make perfect sense.
TACTICAL ANALYSIS: HOW JUDE BELLINGHAM’S POST-SURGERY SLUMP IS OPENING THE DOOR FOR PHIL FODEN
After shoulder surgery, Jude Bellingham struggles for consistency. See why Thomas Tuchel is considering Premier League rivals.
Jude Bellingham started great at Real Madrid, but lately, his performance and health have been worrying the club.
Since his shoulder surgery, he hasn't been the same player and isn't making as big of a difference as before.
He's still playing well, but not as consistently, which is also affecting his chances with the English national team.
Premier League players are pushing Bellingham.
With the 2026 World Cup coming up, there could be a tough fight for Thomas Tuchel's number ten spot, according to AS.
Bellingham used to be the first player on the team sheet, but now he has to watch out. People generally think that, unlike Harry Kane, Bukayo Saka, or Declan Rice, the Real Madrid No. 5 is no longer seen as irreplaceable by the coaches.
Bellingham is mostly up against Premier League guys like Phil Foden, Cole Palmer, Morgan Rogers, and even Morgan Gibbs-White.
Manchester City’s Foden is back to his best, scoring six goals in his last five league games to remind everyone how good he is.
At the same time, Chelsea’s Cole Palmer, even with some injuries, is still a threat that teams have to pay special attention to.
But maybe the biggest threat to Bellingham's starting spot is Aston Villa’s Morgan Rogers. The 23-year-old has been scoring a lot, including two goals in games against top teams, and Tuchel trusts him as a real option for the number 10 position.
The England coach has said that his tactics won't allow him to play all these star players at the same time, so Bellingham is facing tough competition.
Luckily, Bellingham’s play under Xabi Alonso has been getting better, and he might win La Liga’s U23 player of the month for December.
If he plays well in the second half of the season, it could really help him secure his spot on the England team for the 2026 World Cup.
