MARC GUEHI’S farewell Crystal Palace video has been leaked online after he was denied a deadline day move to Liverpool at the 11th hour.
The video started in black and white tribute and played interview clips and highlights from the moment Guehi signed from Chelsea.
And it ended with Guehi celebrating Palace’s FA Cup final win over Manchester City – which he captained them to.
The video ended with the message “thank you skip” which was meant to signal the centre-back’s dream move to Premier League champions Liverpool.
But it was not to be.
Liverpool agreed a £35million deal with the Eagles for the 25-year-old – who even completed his medical in London.
The league leaders had submitted a deal sheet to give them more time to get the move over the line – but within the hour the deal was dead.
Palace had attempted to sign replacements, including Brighton’s Igor Julio.
And the defender’s deal was progressing before West Ham swooped and signed the Brazilian.
So without a replacement – Palace pulled the plug on Guehi’s move.
Manager Oliver Glasner is also believed to have threatened to QUIT if he lost his captain in the window.
Palace are now at risk of losing Guehi – who has less than one year remaining on his contract.
