Manchester City Eyes Crystal Palace's Marc Guehi Amid Injuries
Manchester City is thinking about signing Marc Guehi, a player from Crystal Palace, because some of their own players got hurt.
Liverpool also likes Guehi and wanted to sign him last summer, but that didn't happen.
Now, both teams might try to get him in January or wait until the end of the season.
Crystal Palace might sell him now to get some money instead of losing him for free later.
Manchester City has even called back a young player from a loan to help with their injuries.
Manchester City is considering signing Crystal Palace's Marc Guehi due to injuries to Ruben Dias and Josko Gvardiol.
Liverpool also has interest in Guehi, having pursued him last summer for £35 million.

Crystal Palace may sell Guehi in January to avoid losing him for free at the end of the season.
