Marc Guéhi has quickly emerged as one of Europe’s most coveted central defenders. Although Liverpool nearly secured his signature last summer, the proposed deal ultimately collapsed. Now, Spanish giants Barcelona and Real Madrid are tracking the England international, yet Bayern Munich have firmly entered the contest.
While currently negotiating Dayot Upamecano’s contract extension, the Bavarians are seeking defensive options as either squad cover or potential replacements if talks fail. Guéhi is a primary target, and Bayern holds a unique advantage: England captain Harry Kane. Reports from TZ and Sky Sports indicate Kane is actively encouraging his compatriot to move to the Allianz Arena, a prospect the defender reportedly finds attractive.
The "Kane factor" could prove pivotal in this upcoming transfer battle. Starting in January, the talented defender will be eligible to negotiate a lucrative pre-contract agreement for the 2026/27 season, ensuring a race for his services among these European clubs.
