Chelsea could rake in over £10m in transfer fees for star who left two YEARS ago, thanks to Arsenal


CHELSEA could pocket more than £10million if Crystal Palace sell Marc Guehi – amid interest from Arsenal, Manchester United and Tottenham.

The Blues reportedly have a 20 per cent sell-on clause after selling him to Palace in 2021.

Guehi, 22, has won three England caps since his £18m move from Stamford Bridge to Selhurst Park.

And the Eagles are believed to rate him at over £50m.

If they are able to sell the defender for that fee, Chelsea will be set for a cool, eight-figure windfall.

Guehi earns £50,000 a week at Palace on a five-year contract until 2026.

And the Eagles hope to keep the Ivory Coast-born star.

But Arsenal and Spurs are understood to be keen.

William Saliba’s injury exposed the Gunners’ lack of strength in depth in central defence as their title bid falters.

Emirates boss Mikel Arteta believes £20m January signing Jakub Kiwior will need a lot more time to adjust.

And Rob Holding has struggled as Saliba’s stand-in.

That’s left Arteta considering recruiting a proven talent for the middle of his defence next season.

Meanwhile, Cristian Romero and Eric Dier have failed to convince for Spurs.

And French loanee Clement Lenglet will return to Barcelona this summer.

It’s also claimed United chief Erik ten Hag rates Guehi as a back-up option.

The Red Devils are said to be in advanced talks to bring in their first-choice target, Napoli’s Kim Min-jae.

The South Korea ace, 26, has a release clause of at least £43m.
