According to The Sun, Real Madrid have moved into pole position to land Tottenham Hotspur target Marc Guehi from Crystal Palace.

Guehi’s burgeoning reputation has grown even further in light of his impressive performances at the Euros, with the centre-back being part of a defensive unit that has conceded just two goals all tournament.

Several sources have continued to suggest over the last few months that Tottenham are big fans of the Chelsea academy graduate (Alasdair Gold –Q&A for Football.London).

The Sun have now claimed that the race for Guehi’s signature is heating up with Real Madrid, Barcelona and Juventus all eyeing a move for the player.

The report alleges that it is the reigning European champions who have now moved into pole position to secure the 23-year-old’s services.

The outlet points out that both Spurs and Arsenal also remain long-term admirers of Guehi, who is expected to leave Selhurst Park this summer since he has just two years left on his deal.

The publication adds that Oliver Glasner’s men are demanding £50m for the centre-back and are expecting offers to come their way.

Spurs Web Opinion

Tottenham are not going to be spending £50m on another centre-back this summer, given the options that Ange has at his disposal right now.

The Lilywhites will likely pursue a versatile centre-back, who can also fill in at left-back, with Riccardo Calafiori fitting the bill perfectly – although he also looks more likely to join Arsenal or Chelsea.
