Chelsea told Premier League star will cost £65 million to sign this summer

CHELSEA have been told how much they would have to splash for Crystal Palace star Marc Guehi.

Despite all the focus on the Euros right now – there is still alot of speculation surrounding the players that Enzo Maresca will look to sign during the summer, especially as the new Chelsea boss needs to stay in his job for more than one season

That has led to some rumours in the media which have claimed that the club are ready to battle it out for the signature of Guehi – who has been impressing at Palace this season, and has been impressing for England at the Euros.

And adding a new defender to the squad is high up on things to do in the transfer window as Maresca knows that he needs to replace Thiago Silva after the Brazilian star made the decision to leave the club and head back to his homeland for the final few years of his career.

According to The Telegraph, Palace would demand at least £65million with Guehi’s contract up in 2026.

And reporter Iomie Stanley thinks that signing Guehi would be a good signing, he said: ‘He’s been knocking on the door of the top clubs for a few seasons now. He’s English, he’s young with good technical ability on the ball and he’s quick so he’s a modern centre back.

‘He’s a good character around the dressing room and is ready for that next step in his career.’
