Bayern Munich has joined the pursuit of Mark Guy, and the number of European clubs that hope to sign the player is increasing.

The England defender was expected to join Liverpool at the transfer deadline for £35 million, but Crystal Palace terminated negotiations at the last moment, causing the deal to break down. But this matter also opened the door to opportunities for major European clubs: after Guy's contract expires next summer, these clubs are expected to sign him as free agents.

Bayern is the latest top club to follow the news of the Crystal Palace captain. Guy will be an attractive signing target after becoming a free agent next summer.

Real Madrid and Barcelona are also paying close attention to the developments, and both Spanish giants have shown strong interest in Guy.

Inter Milan and Juventus are also interested in introducing Guy, and Guy himself knows that if he transfers as a free agent, he will be able to win a richer contract.

From January 1 next year, overseas clubs can negotiate with Guy and sign pre-joining agreements, which gives them an advantage over Premier League teams.

This summer, Guy has made it clear that he will either join Liverpool or leave as a free agent after his contract with Crystal Palace expires next year.

This means that he has no intention of negotiating a contract renewal with Crystal Palace, and Liverpool still hopes to sign him as a free agent next summer.

Although the transfer failed to disappoint Guy, he promised to do his best for Crystal Palace for the rest of the season. In addition, when he was training with England at St. George's Park this week, he always had a smile on his face and his mood was not greatly affected.
