In the Premier League transfer market this summer, a battle surrounding Crystal Palace captain Mark Gey is intensifying. In this competition, Liverpool seems to have ushered in an unexpected "lobbyist". West Ham United star and Gee's England national teammate Jarrod Bowen publicly stated that he hopes Gee will choose to join Liverpool instead of another strong suitor, Newcastle United.

As one of the hottest centre-backs in the Premier League today, Guy's future has attracted much attention. Both Liverpool and Newcastle viewed it as the number one target for strengthening the back. It is reported that Crystal Palace has marked their defensive core with a "sky price" of up to £65 million. At present, Gee is fighting for the 2025 European Cup with the Three Lions, but this has not affected the outside world's pursuit of him at all.

For Liverpool, finding Van Dijk's long-term successor is the top priority this summer, and new coach Arne Slott appreciates Guy's ability even more. Newcastle on the other side is also eager to introduce the England international to improve the quality of the defense line.

Bowen, who is preparing for the national team, was asked about his teammate's future in an interview. He gave his advice without hesitation: "Mark (Guy) is a great player and a great leader. I think he is ready to move to a higher level in his career. If I were asked to give him advice, I would definitely tell him: Go to Liverpool! It is an unparalleled giant, and he has the strength to gain a foothold at that top level."

Bowen's words are undoubtedly "the sound of nature" for Liverpool fans. The 24-year-old Guy perfectly fits the Reds' portrait of signings: he is young, but has experienced many battles in the Premier League, and has great potential to grow into a world-class central defender. His innate leadership temperament is a valuable asset that the team urgently needs.

In Crystal Palace, Gey is the core cornerstone of the team's youthful storm. He is also fighting side by side with a group of talented "demons" such as Eze, Olisse, and Walton. Although Crystal Palace is reluctant to leave, it is difficult for them to not be moved when facing the huge offer of 65 million British GLISH.

For Liverpool, which is determined to show its strength in the new era, if they can successfully sign Guy, it will be a symbolic signing of the new coach Slott era. At present, young talents like Kwaanza have already emerged in the team. If Gei can be added, a central defender group that is enough to shock the next ten years will be about to emerge.
