Manchester City manager Pep Guardiola was asked about the club’s interest in Guehi during his news conference on Friday, but the Spaniard shut down the question with a firm “nothing to say”.
Meanwhile, Palace boss Oliver Glasner said: “My understanding is the deal with Marc is in the final stages.” The Austrian then added Guehi will not be in the squad to face Sunderland in the Premier League on Saturday.
Earlier this month, Glasner said the Eagles would sell Guehi in January if the asking price was met.
Guehi captained Palace to victory in the FA Cup final against City in May, plus a Community Shield win over Liverpool at the start of this season.
He looked set to join Arne Slot’s side on 1 September but the £35m deal fell through in the final hours of transfer deadline day, with Guehi having already started a medical.
