Newcastle fans rage at confirmed Marc Guehi news - 'Embarrassing'

Newcastle United fans have been left raging by the latest twist in their race to sign Crystal Palace star Marc Guehi before 31 August.

The centre-back started for Palace in their final pre-season friendly fixture at Selhurst Park as the Eagles continue to plan for the season with Guehi in a key role.

He captained the side and played 62 minutes before he was substituted off alongside a host of changes, but his involvement was a key indicator that no deal is close.

This is despite early suggestions that Eddie Howe’s side were closing in on a deal.

As a result, fans have been left fuming as many believe they will now miss out on a deal for the England star, stating they have waited too long to get it over the line.

Newcastle are in desperate need of a new centre-back and have prioritised Guehi as their number-one target, with talks still ongoing.

Football Insider revealed on 9 August that rival clubs are plotting to hijack their move if they cannot reach an agreement with Palace soon.

Now, fans have flooded social media with suggestions that they may not land their key target, labelling the club “embarrassing” and “a joke” as a result.

Well it is embarrassing how we’ve let this drag in the public, second bid 15mil short like what are we playing at— Jack (@LetDanCook) August 11, 2024

Clearly shows Palace are preparing the season ahead with Guihi fully part of their plans. Seems like for the sake of £10m, we are missing out on someone who has all the attributes to become a PL beast. And guess what, they will blame it all on PSR when we clearly have the funds— Air Gordon (@Air__Gordon__) August 11, 2024

It's a joke how slow we are any other club would of completed a deal by now https://t.co/YJ6S1B0I99— James (@NUFCJames27) August 11, 2024

Lmao this isn’t close to happening. Wtf r we doing man— Glen (@Glen23506235471) August 11, 2024

The lad clearly doesn’t want it like thiaw, something massively wrong with the club if we can’t spend money and can’t attract a player who is currently at Crystal Palace who have next to no ambition #NUFC https://t.co/QdnciQIQCZ— Nufcollie⚫️⚪️ (@GUTM23) August 11, 2024
