I just can't see Guehi going in January. Not only would it create a massive disruption in the squad, but I also don't see us needing the money. Let's say his valuation does fall to £30 mil. in the summer. By then, Ebs' release clause will be reactivated in the £60 mil.-plus range. Raising £60-65 mil. (after fees to Chelsea and QPR) via selling Guehi and Eze would give us plenty to work with. And that's not even considering any budget we'd set aside for transfers. (Palace has yet to dip into this year's transfer budget for any business; everything has been funded via sales.)
