MANCHESTER UNITED could be set to launch a bid for Crystal Palace defender Marc Guehi, according to reports.
England star Guehi, 23, has been integral to the Eagles’ back line since he joined from Chelsea in 2021.
Marc Guehi has become one of Crystal Palace’s most important playersRex
And he is now attracting interest from a big-name Premier League club.
According to South London Press, Man Utd could make a play for the centre-back in the summer.
If they are to acquire the defender, it is understood he will cost in excess of the £50million the Red Devils paid for Aaron Wan-Bissaka four years ago.
That means Palace would receive a club-record fee for Guehi.
However, Man Utd face competition from the Palace star’s former club, Chelsea.
That is because the Blues hold matching rights on any offer Palace accept for their man.
Guehi has made 91 appearances for the West London club since joining two years ago.
He has formed an impressive partnership alongside Joachim Andersen.

He has also earned six England caps and started both of the Three Lions’ Euro 2024 qualifiers in September.
He was also included in Gareth Southgate‘s squad for this month’s games against Australia and Italy.
And he would be a welcome addition to Man Utd’s squad.
Erik ten Hag has suffered injury blows to Lisandro Martinez and Raphael Varane at the start of the season.
It has left him relying on Jonny Evans, Harry Maguire and Victor Lindelof.
Man Utd have lost six of their opening 11 games in all competitions.
