Liverpool transfer target Marc Guehi has posed for a picture with celebrity Reds fan Trevor Noah amid links over a summer move to Anfield.

The Daily Show host is in the UK as part of his stand-up tour at the Apollo in London and among the guests at the show was the Crystal Palace defender, who could join Arne Slot's side.

The Premier League champions have moved to strengthen their squad after romping to a second domestic crown in five years.



Florian Wirtz was the blockbuster addition after his mega-money move from Bayer Leverkusen, while Jeremie Frimpong also made the switch from Die Werkself and Milos Kerkez completed his transfer from Bournemouth.

Outgoings are to be expected with Caoimhin Kelleher joining Trent Alexander-Arnold out of the Anfield exit door, with England under-21s star Jarell Quansah on the verge of following suit, which opens up the opportunity for further defensive reinforcements.

The Reds might be settling for a waiting game over a deal to sign the Crystal Palace skipper.

The focus in the transfer window will be the defensive department with Quansah set to join Leverkusen after his exploits with Lee Carsley's Young Lions in the European Championships - with the final on Saturday.

Guehi is a player of genuine interest to the Reds, however, the ECHO reported that Liverpool would be happy to bide their time in the pursuit of the England international, with the 24-year-old out of contract next summer, after being aggressive and proactive in their moves for Frimpong, Wirtz and Kerkez.

Reports and speculation is swirling around the Palace defender regarding his future after the Premier League expressed an interest in his services.

Despite the ongoing external noise, Guehi has been enjoying his downtime after helping Palace to a historic FA Cup triumph and part of his off-season saw him take in one of Noah's performances in the capital.

Taking to Instagram, he posted: "Pleasure to meet you, Trevor & watch you live!

"Thanks, bro."

The coincidence of the meeting between the two is Noah's love for the Reds and his declaration as a supporter of the club, while the rumour mill suggests a possible move to Anfield for Guehi.

Last season, the South African comedian met with former Liverpool manager Jurgen Klopp and discussed his love for the club.

"So the reason everyone should be supporting Liverpool is because it has a storied history, I think Liverpool has some of the best fans in the world, easily the best song of all teams and I think Liverpool play the best football," he said.

"They're never parking the bus, it's never boring, you never have to worry about the team being dynamic enough.
