Crystal Palace is a club located in London, England, and plays in the English Premier League (EPL). Despite losing prestige to big clubs, such as Manchester City and Manchester United, many local English players chose to strengthen Crystal Palace.

Although born in Abidjan, Ivory Coast, Guehi is British. The central defender has represented the England national team several times in various age groups. If he is able to look impressive, it’s just a matter of time until he gets a call to the England senior national team.
