Real Madrid and Barcelona are set to miss out on Crystal Palace and England defender Marc Guehi, after an agreement was reached for Guehi to move this month. Both had been interested in a move for Guehi in the summer, when he was available on a free transfer.
Guehi was heavily linked to Barcelona and Real Madrid before December, and Director of Football at the former, Deco, confirmed that he thought he was a good player. Atletico Madrid were also said to be monitoring his situation, amid interest from Bayern Munich, Liverpool and Manchester City too.
Manchester City agree Guehi deal
It seems that Guehi will head to City though, with Fabrizio Romano reporting that a deal has been reached for a β¬22m move to Manchester City from Palace to take place this month. Personal terms have already been agreed, and thus barring any surprise setbacks, Guehi will complete the move in the coming days.
