Marc Guehi Set for Manchester City Move as Glasner Bids Farewell to Crystal Palace

Manchester City is on the verge of signing England international Marc Guehi from Crystal Palace, as confirmed by Oliver Glasner. Glasner also announced his departure as Palace manager, fueling speculation of a move to Manchester United. Guehi's transfer ensures Palace will receive a fee rather than losing him as a free agent.

Manchester City is nearing the acquisition of defender Marc Guehi, with Crystal Palace manager Oliver Glasner confirming the impending transfer. The England international had seen a potential move to Liverpool fall through in the summer.

City's move comes as manager Pep Guardiola aims to strengthen the team's pursuit of both Premier League and Champions League titles. Glasner, whose contract with Palace expires at the season's end, acknowledged the finalization of Guehi's deal ahead of Palace's game against Sunderland.

Guehi's transfer is crucial for Palace to secure a financial return. Glasner, who played a key role in Palace's FA Cup win, announced his decision to leave, sparking rumors of a potential switch to Manchester United following Ruben Amorim's dismissal.
