Crystal Palace: Oliver Glasner confirms Marc Guehi set to join Man City with deal at 'final stages' | OneFootball

England international is out of contract this summer

Guehi is out of contract at Selhurst Park this summer.

"Latest understanding, the deal with Marc is in the final stages,” Glasner revealed.

“We can't confirm, but it is not done. The result is Marc doesn't play tomorrow for us.

"When the players want to move on a deal will happen. It looks like it has happened now.

"Everyone wanted Marc [Guehi] to stay forever. I talked to him, of course, it stays between us. Marc has shown it in the summer transfer window, shown it the whole autumn that he was 100% committed to the team and to Crystal Palace.

"I wish him all the best for the rest of his career. He is still at the beginning of his great career. He is a fantastic guy."

It had been reported earlier on Friday that City had launched a bid for the England international, who saw a Deadline Day move to Liverpool collapse at the 11th hour last summer.

The 25-year-old is now nearing a switch to the Etihad Stadium, with BBC Sport revealing that City had agreed a deal in principle for the defender, with Guehi exepected to agree person terms with Pep Guardiola’s side.

Interest in the defender had been rife, with Arsenal among those with Guehi on their radar, while Liverpool continued to monitor the Eagles captain.

Reports claimed that there was also interest from overseas, with Bayern Munich, Barcelona and Real Madrid all thought to be admirers.

Guehi’s last game as a Palace player is likely to be their recent FA Cup upset at the hands of Macclesfield, with the non-league side recording one of the biggest shocks in history to dump the holders out.

In a revealing press conference ahead of the south Londoners’ trip to Wearside, Palace manager Glasner also confirmed that he himself would be leaving Selhurst Park when his contract expires at the end of the season.
