Jurgen Klopp's Liverpool was reportedly keen on signing Crystal Palace defender Marc Guehi last summer. However, the transfer deal ultimately fell through.
Carragher, a former Liverpool player and current TV pundit, expressed his thoughts on the failed transfer. He believes that the rejected transfer could have significant consequences for the team.
Guehi's performances for Crystal Palace have been impressive, and his skills could have been a valuable addition to Liverpool's defense. Carragher thinks that the decision not to sign Guehi could come back to haunt the team.
He suggests that teams often look for players who have already shown their abilities at a high level. By missing out on Guehi, Liverpool may be passing up an opportunity to strengthen their squad.
Carragher's comments highlight the potential risks of not making the right transfer decisions. It remains to be seen how Liverpool will adapt to the lack of Guehi's skills in their defense.
