That is according to TeamTalk, who report that while Palace ideally value Guehi at £70m, it would take only £45m for them to consider his sale.

A move is understood to have been considered last summer, but Federico Chiesa remained Arne Slot’s only outfield senior signing ahead of the triumphant 2024-25 Premier League campaign.

Newcastle were unsuccessful with at least two bids for Guehi 12 months ago.

Guehi has plenty of top-level experience, having won 23 England caps and made 132 Premier League appearances.

Liverpool still want to invest in Slot’s squad despite spending a reported £116m on Florian Wirtz and a further £30m on Jeremie Frimpong.

A move for forward Alexander Isak is widely reported to be viewed as a difficult deal to conclude.
