Arsenal reportedly want Crystal Palace’s Marc Guehi but the Eagles are set to demand a titanic fee in the summer.\u00a0<\/p>\n
The England centre back is not currently on the market but his performances have attracted longing gazes from the Premier League’s top clubs.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Palace slapped a \u00a350million price tag on Guehi\u00a0in the summer with Liverpool, Manchester United, Tottenham, and Arsenal all reportedly keen.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Now The Sun\u00a0report that Mikel Arteta\u00a0is undeterred and sees Guehi as a part of his long-term plans,\u00a0but Palace could command a club record fee in the summer in the hope of deterring the Gunners boss.\u00a0<\/p>\n
The 23-year-old has kept up his good form for Palace and they may want more than the \u00a350m they made from selling Aaron Wan-Bissaka to United in 2019.\u00a0<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
Crystal Palace could demand more than \u00a350m for Marc Guehi in the summer, with Arsenal in the chase for him<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
The 23-year-old has established himself as a leader and defensive rock for Crystal Palace<\/p>\n

He is gradually establishing himself as a fixture in the England set-up and has made seven international appearances since his debut last year against Switzerland.\u00a0<\/p>\n
There should be stiff competition for his signature and when Chelsea sold him to Crystal Palace, they included a clause where they can match any bid for him.\u00a0<\/p>\n
That was back in 2021, when Palace paid \u00a318m for the defender – a fee that looks like a steal now.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Across 91 appearances in south London, he has turned into a leader and a player with wisdom beyond his years, forcing his way into Gareth Southgate’s favour.<\/p>\n
Comfortable in possession and defensively solid, he is a strong all-rounder who could add something to most back lines in England.\u00a0<\/p>\n
He still has areas to work on, of course. He was robbed by Sean Longstaff on the edge of the box in Palace’s 4-0 defeat at Newcastle earlier this month but is generally reliable on the ball.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Arsenal currently have a strong pairing of their own in William Saliba and Gabriel Magalhaes, but as they hope to go deep in Europe under Arteta the demands on their squad will ramp up.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Guehi might have some bad memories of playing against the Gunners as he scored an own goal against them in a 2-0 loss to open the 2022-23 Premier League season.\u00a0<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
He has made seven appearances for England and top clubs have showed interest in him before<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
A bidding war will likely have to wait until the summer but Mikel Arteta reportedly sees him in his long-term plans\u00a0<\/p>\n
