Liverpool continue to be the subject of transfer speculation with the January transfer window set to open next month. The Reds came close to signing Marc Guehi in the summer and reports have suggested they will swoop for the Crystal Palace captain again.

However, it has been claimed that it is unlikely that Liverpool will return to the table to sign the England international. Guehi is out of contract in the summer and will be able to enter negotiations with overseas clubs from January 1.

Arne Slot has been forced to weather defensive problems with Ibrahima Konate out of form, Joe Gomez struggling for fitness and Giovanni Leoni sidelined for an extended period with a knee injury.

Gomez returned to the starting line-up at right-back for Liverpool's 2-0 win over West Ham United on Sunday.
