Manchester City is set to complete the signing of Crystal Palace defender Marc Guéhi, with the England international due to undergo a medical today, according to ESPN.
The Premier League champions have agreed to a deal with Palace worth an initial £20 million ($27 million), with additional performance-related add-ons included in the agreement.
Guéhi, one of Palace’s standout performers in recent seasons, is expected to bolster City’s defensive options with his composure on the ball, positional awareness, and leadership qualities.
The move represents a significant step for the 24-year-old, who has established himself as a regular in the England setup and has attracted interest from several top clubs.
Pending a successful medical and the completion of final paperwork, Guéhi is expected to be announced as a Manchester City player in the coming days, further strengthening Pep Guardiola’s squad ahead of the business end of the season.
