Newcastle make third bid for Palace defender Guehi

Newcastle United have reportedly made a third bid for Crystal Palace defender Marc Guehi as they look to strengthen their backline ahead of the upcoming season.

The Magpies have already had two bids rejected by Palace for the talented young centre-back, but it is understood that they have not given up on signing him just yet.

Guehi, who is highly rated by Palace manager Patrick Vieira, has been a key figure in the Eagles’ defence and it is no surprise that they are reluctant to let him go.

Newcastle are in desperate need of defensive reinforcements after leaking goals last season, and Guehi could be the answer to their problems.

The 21-year-old has shown great potential and could develop into a top defender in the Premier League if given the right opportunities.

It remains to be seen whether Palace will be willing to negotiate with Newcastle for Guehi, but the Magpies are determined to get their man.

Guehi himself may be tempted by the opportunity to join a club with ambitions of pushing for European qualification in the near future.

If Newcastle are able to secure a deal for Guehi, it would be a major coup for the club and a significant step towards improving their defensive solidity.

Only time will tell if Newcastle’s third bid for Guehi will be successful, but one thing is for certain – they are not giving up without a fight.
