According to multiple sources, negotiations are underway regarding Joe Gomez, with Crystal Palace keen to finalise a deal with Liverpool as they look to strengthen their squad for the run-in. The defender has emerged as a top transfer target in recent weeks, and the player's representatives are also believed to be involved in early discussions on personal terms. Whether a deal can be struck remains to be seen, but there is increasing optimism that the transfer could go through in the coming days. While Crystal Palace and Liverpool continue talks, no breakthrough has been reported. Brighton and Milan reportedly may still have an interest, but currently the focus is on getting this deal across the line. With only 3 goals conceded in 6 (0.5 per game), Crystal Palace have been one of the stronger defences in the Premier League this season.. Joe Gomez would be asked to keep that standard and provide dependable cover when needed. Liverpool continue to be linked with Federico Gatti, Yoane Wissa and Tyler Morton while Crystal Palace are also rumoured to be tracking David Brooks, Christoph Baumgartner and Reiss Nelson.
