Palace signed Ben Chilwell on loan in January but he has returned to Chelsea.

Liverpool get answer in swap deal bid for England star
Liverpool propose Doak - Guehi swap And with his contract expiring in 12 months, Guehi is available this summer for a fraction of his true worth. It has been reported that the Reds were seeking to add Ben Doak to a deal for Guehi. Advertisement The London side wanted Scotland winger Doak in winter but were unwilling to come up with the £30m fee. In order to sweeten the deal for Guehi, Liverpool would reportedly be keen to add in Doak. That would in turn lower the upfront costs due for Guehi. Palace REJECT swap deal proposal But now comes a report in Football Insider which suggests that Palace are not too keen on a part-exchange. They would prefer to cash in on Guehi with a big fee considering they will have to go out and buy a starting centre-back to replace him. Ousmane Diomande looks to be the chosen one but won't come cheap at £60m.
