Crystal Palace: ‘I think Guehi will stay’ says Glasner

Crystal Palace manager Oliver Glasner says he thinks captain Marc Guehi will stay with the club this month before leaving as a free agent in the summer.

Manchester City and Liverpool have been linked with a move for the England international this month as his contract runs down a Selhurst Park.

Newcastle and Liverpool came close to signing the centre-back in the past two summers and Glasner is confident he will stay until the end of the current campaign.

Speaking to Sky Sports, Glasner said: “If the offer would have been high enough [last summer] and the club was fine with it and Marc wanted to go, then he wouldn’t be a Palace player anymore.

“Last January would have been the same. Every single player has a price where a club will sell him, especiially when you are Palace because we are not at the end of the food chain in football.

“I think Marc will stay but if he says ‘I want to stay’ and a club pays massive money with five months left of contract, then any player would leave if you are a club like Palace.

“I’m sure our chairman will ask a very high price for him, let’s see.

“I don’t know if Marc wants to leave. Right now when I see him playing, training, his commitment, we are talking quite often together. I think the fans can be calm. But you never know what can happen in football.”
