Newcastle United may be considering alternatives, potentially as a negotiating tactic, but their interest in Crystal Palace defender Marc Guehi remains.

The Magpies have had four bids for the 24-year-old England international - the most recent rising to 拢65m - turned down.

Guehi, who has two years left on his contract at Selhurst Park, is ready to move this summer if the option becomes available.

But Palace are reluctant to lose both centre-backs after agreeing a fee with Fulham to sell Joachim Andersen for about 拢30m.

The south London club's chairman Steve Parish told 成人快手 Sport last week: "I can鈥檛 imagine a situation where we would lose both of our centre-halves."

But an increased fifth offer could be enough to finally convince Parish as he would be walking away from the best possible fee he could get for Guehi, given his contract situation.
