According to the Telegraph, if Guy leaves Crystal Palace this summer, Liverpool will be in the lead in the competition.

If Guy leaves Crystal Palace this summer, Liverpool will be in the lead in the competition, and his contract with Crystal Palace is only one year left.

Guy will play against Liverpool in Wembley's Community Shield on Sunday, and Anfield has been closely watching his contract at Crystal Palace for a year and is very interested in the defender.

As Chelsea currently focuses on signings, Liverpool will have few opponents in the battle for the 25-year-old.

Chelsea coach Maresca admitted: "We are trying to find different solutions." Although Guy comes from Chelsea's youth training camp and is appreciated by Stamford Bridge, his current plan to return to the Blues is not on the agenda.

A year ago, Newcastle was close to signing Guy for about £70 million, but now their signing focus is shifting to the front line, and coach Eddie Howe's primary goal is a striker.

Although Guy's contract is about to expire and there is no sign that he will renew his contract, his importance in the team still complicates the transfer. Last year, Newcastle valued him at £65 million, which should be cheaper now because he can transfer freely in a year.
