Chelsea are reportedly considering a summer move to re-sign Crystal Palace defender Marc Guehi. The 24-year-old, who joined Chelsea’s academy at the age of six, moved to Palace for £18 million in 2021 after limited first-team opportunities at Stamford Bridge.

Since then, Guehi has developed into one of the Premier League’s standout center-backs, earning a spot in Gareth Southgate’s England squad. He started five of England’s six games during their Euros campaign, missing only the match against Switzerland due to suspension. His performances have caught the attention of several clubs, including Newcastle, who are also keen on securing his services.

With Guehi’s contract expiring at the end of next season, Chelsea and other suitors may see an opportunity for a cut-price deal. The Blues are expected to face stiff competition from Newcastle in what could become a significant transfer battle next summer. Guehi’s growth at Selhurst Park and his international success make him a prime target for his former club, as they look to bolster their defense.
