In Sunday's match against Serbia, Marc Guehi stood out with his impressive performance for England. His skills have caught the attention of top clubs like Arsenal and Manchester United, but his teammate Anthony Gordon is hoping he'll choose to join him at Newcastle United if he decides to leave Crystal Palace this summer.
Newcastle has also been linked with Guehi, who is valued at over £55 million by Palace. And Gordon, who is also a fan of Guehi's abilities, would be thrilled to see him at St James' Park. In an interview with talkSPORT, Gordon expressed his excitement at the possibility of Guehi joining their team, saying, "I'd absolutely love him to come because he's a top player and he'd make us a better team."
Guehi's performance in England's 1-0 win over Serbia in the Euro 2024 Group C opener only solidified his reputation as a top defender. And Gordon was particularly impressed with Guehi's composure on the ball. "He's top, he's such a good player," Gordon praised, "I was glad the nation got to see him shine on that stage because he's such a lovely guy and he deserves what's coming to him."
Gordon also noted Guehi's ability to hold his own against taller strikers, saying, "I thought he was unbelievable in that game [against Serbia] considering his height compared to the strikers they had on. He won every header, he was aggressive, intercepting loads." But Gordon believes Guehi's main strength lies in his composure on the ball, comparing him to a midfielder.
With Guehi and John Stones as a defensive partnership, Gordon believes they have what it takes to control a game. And if Guehi does choose to join Newcastle, it would be a major boost for their team. But regardless of where he ends up, Gordon has no doubt that Guehi will continue to thrive and reach new heights in his career.
