On the final day of the transfer window, Liverpool had a deal approved by Crystal Palace for Guehi, but the transfer was halted as Palace could not find a suitable replacement.

Insights from the Experts

“That was a significant error,” Carragher remarked during the Stick to Football podcast. “Liverpool are typically astute in the transfer market, managing to avoid overpaying and excelling in their sales. This could prove costly for them. If they don’t bring in a center-back in January…”

Keane chimed in, stating, “they would ultimately miss out on a Champions League spot,” a sentiment Carragher supported.

Keane further reflected, “In hindsight, they will regret not signing Guehi this summer.” He emphasized, “As time passes, this oversight seems more glaring.”
