Liverpool<\/a> are leading Chelsea<\/a> and Tottenham<\/a> in the race to sign a key England player this season.<\/p>\n

A number of top clubs have expressed interest in signing Crystal Palace<\/a> defender Marc Guehi following his impressive form for club and country.<\/p>\n

Guehi will make his 150th appearance for Palace before the end of the season and was made the club’s captain by former manager and Premier League legend Patrick Vieira.<\/p>\n

The 24-year-old has also become a key player for England, starring in their run to the Euro 2024 final last summer<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Guehi’s form during the Euros attracted interest from the likes of Manchester United, Newcastle United, Arsenal, Liverpool and even his boyhood club Chelsea<\/a>.<\/p>\n

After spending a decade in Chelsea’s academy, Guehi made two first-team appearances for the Blues before being sold to Palace for under \u00a320m.<\/p>\n

Despite the intense transfer speculation, Guehi stayed at Selhurst Park last summer and during the January transfer window, when he was the subject of a late \u00a370m offer from Tottenham<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Crystal Palace rejected the bid but are braced for more approaches ahead of the summer transfer window, with Spurs and Chelsea linked with moves.<\/p>\n

But the Daily Mirror<\/a> say Liverpool are at the front of the queue to sign Guehi, who would prefer to move to Anfield than any other Premier League club.<\/p>\n

Liverpool have endured a miserable week – exiting the Champions League<\/a> and losing the Carabao Cup final to Newcastle<\/a> – but Arne Slot’s side are still set to win their 20th league title.<\/p>\n

It is claimed Chelsea, Tottenham and Arsenal could yet rival Liverpool for a move but that as things stand, the Reds are firmly in the driving seat.<\/p>\n
