If Crystal Palace refuses to lower its 50 million quest for Guy, Liverpool considers Creswell

Hupu, August 7th, According to Liverpool's media DaveOCKOP, the media updated Liverpool's signings at the central defender position this summer. According to reports, Liverpool still regards Crystal Palace central defender Guy as the team's chief defensive position, but if he is not signed, Toulouse's 21-year-old central defender Charlie Creswell is another target the club considers.

In this summer's transfer window, after the team's English central defender Kansa joined Leverkusen for £35 million, there were only three central defenders left in the Reds, Van Dijk, Connert and Joe Gomez. And Connate's contract negotiations complicated the situation - while players and clubs are still discussing new terms, no new contract has been signed, leaving him in uncertainty in the future at Anfield.

And in the middle of the preseason, Joe Gomez was forced to miss the game due to minor Achilles tendon problems, which caused doubts about whether he was ready for the opening game of the new season. So, with Connater's uncertainty and Gomez's health already worrying before the start of the new season, it's clear that Liverpool must sign at least another central defender before the summer window is closed.

DaveOCKOP has been following up on Liverpool and Guy's transfers. As early as March this year, the Reds made clear their interest to Guy and his representatives. Although Newcastle United has also shown interest in the defender, judging from the current situation, Guy is more inclined to transfer to Anfield.

It is reported that Crystal Palace hopes to receive a transfer fee of up to £50 million, while Liverpool is considering bidding at the end of August, when Crystal Palace may be sold at a low price.

But if Crystal Palace still refuses to sell, DaveOCKOP can now reveal that Liverpool is closely watching Toulouse's central defender Charlie Creswell. The 22-year-old was inspected by Liverpool's scouts many times last season and has now become the focus of Liverpool's club recruitment team in the transfer market this summer.
