FINALLY: Marc Guehi reveal jawdropping transfer opinion making a clear stance towards Selhurst Park future.
Newcastle United has made three offers for the highly-rated Euro 2024 player, with the most recent bid reaching £55 million, potentially increasing to £60 million with bonuses. However, Crystal Palace’s chairman, Steve Parish, stated on Tuesday that the current offers haven’t met their valuation, and the club isn’t feeling pressured to make a decision yet.
Parish emphasized that acquiring a top-tier player requires top-tier payment. In response to being labeled a “superstar” by the chairman, Marc Guehi expressed humility and gratitude, downplaying the title while acknowledging the kind words.
As things stand, Guehi is set to lead Crystal Palace in their Premier League season opener against Brentford on Sunday. Newcastle’s first match is scheduled for Saturday against Southampton.
When asked about handling transfer speculation, Guehi expressed confidence in his ability to stay focused, emphasizing the importance of concentrating on upcoming matches and the team’s performance throughout the season.
Guehi also conveyed his contentment at Crystal Palace, praising the club’s atmosphere of unity across all levels, from the academy to the women’s and men’s teams. He described the club as a family-like environment and an excellent place to be part of.
