Crystal Palace Defender Marc Guehi Out for 8 Weeks After Knee Surgery

Crystal Palace and England defender Marc Guehi will be out for up to eight weeks after undergoing minor knee surgery. The injury occurred during a Premier League match against Brighton on February 3, which Palace lost 4-1. Initially, it was expected that Guehi would only be sidelined for two to three weeks, but a decision was made for him to undergo surgery. As a result, Guehi will miss the upcoming March international break, where England will face Brazil and Belgium in friendlies. This setback may impact his chances of being selected for the England squad for Euro 2024. However, Guehi is determined to recover in time for the final few games of the Premier League season and demonstrate his readiness to represent his country in the summer tournament. This news comes as a blow to Crystal Palace manager Oliver Glasner, as Guehi has been a key player for the team this season. Palace's next match is against Tottenham on March 2.
