Crystal Palace view Marc Guehi has the centre piece of their project and want a new contract to reflect his importance to Olivier Glasner’s plans.
The England international was one of the summer transfer window’s most discussed players.
Despite being Newcastle United’s top target, the 24-year-old failed to leave Selhurst Park after the Eagles held firm in their demands for a fee in excess of £70 million.
Marc Guehi set for Crystal Palace contract talks
And following Newcastle’s failed approaches, according to a recent report from Football Insider, Steve Parish is keen to open talks with his star defender over a new contract.
Guehi has just two years left on his current deal, which, according to Spotrac, sees him earn £50,000-per week, so could be in line for a significant pay rise.
The centre-back, who enjoyed an excellent Euros tournament with the Three Lions, is also on Liverpool’s radar, although Arne Slot could face the same disappointment as Eddie Howe.
In line for a new deal, Guehi’s decision to commit his long-term future to the Eagles will all but end speculation over a big-money move to a top-eight side.
During his three years at Selhurst Park, Guehi has scored five goals and registered two assists in 115 games in all competitions.
