Liverpool could reportedly try to drive the price down for Crystal Palace 's Marc Guehi by including 19-year-old attacker Ben Doak as part of the agreement. Over the weekend, it was claimed that the Premier League champions were 'close' to striking a deal for Guehi, who is now in the final 12 months of his deal with the Eagles.

Liverpool are reportedly demanding a transfer fee significantly less than £45million in order to advance their interest in Crystal Palace centre-back Marc Guehi. The Reds are mulling over their next transfer as they attempt to retain the Premier League trophy next season.
