Liverpool have made their first offer for Crystal Palace captain Marc Guehi - according to reports.
The centre-back has been on radar for key figures at Anfield this summer - and they have, seemingly, taken their first steps towards forging a deal before an impending Premier League deadline on September 1.
The Reds are said to have offered £35million flat with no add-ons.
The ECHO understands Liverpool had been willing to be patient to get their man, even waiting for next summer to roll around on the chance he does not put pen-to-paper on fresh terms at Anfield.
Work continues at Selhurst Park for would-be replacements to green light a proposed move.
Despite that understanding - and chairman Steve Parish admitting that a sale could be possible this summer - the club's head coach Oliver Glaser has been public with his desire to keep Guehi in south London, at least for this season.
Speaking after Palace qualified for the Conference League group phase on Thursday night, Glasner said: "Everybody can see how many players we have available.
"Everybody can see how important Marc is, honestly, I don't know, but I really deeply hope Marc will play for us at Villa Park.
"I deeply hope that Marc will play until the end of the season for us."

Meanwhile, Marc Guehi has been a player of interest all summer and Liverpool could still launch a last-minute deal for the Crystal Palace defender.
