Crystal Palace chairman Steve Parish has met with Marc Guehi and his family this week.

Parish blocked Guehi from joining Liverpool late during Monday's transfer deadline day after a £35m fee had been settled and the Reds had submitted a deal sheet.

The Mirror says Guehi has been left frustrated by Parish's decision and has been considering handing over the club captaincy.

Parish spoke with Guehi and his family earlier this week to explain the decision, admitting the lack of a readymade replacement for the defender forced Palace to withdraw from negotiations.

Now inside the final year of his Palace deal, Guehi could yet leave in January for Liverpool for a knockdown fee.
