Crystal Palace set £70m price for star man as Liverpool bid chances evaluated
That means any team seeking to sign Guehi are going to have to face paying a premium in order to prise him away from the club he joined in 2021 from Chelsea.
Having come through the youth ranks at Cobham, the Cote d’Ivoire-born defender moved to Palace for an initial £18m fee.
He has since established himself as one of the most consistent defenders in the top flight, earning 17 England caps in the process.
Following an injury suffered by Harry Maguire on the eve of Euro 2024, Guehi was named as England’s starting centre back alongside Manchester City’s John Stones and earned the plaudits for his performances in Germany as the Three Lions reached the final.
Liverpool are reported to be in the market for a new centre back this summer with uncertainty over the future of Virgil van Dijk and Joel Matip leaving upon the expiry of his contract.
Dean Huijsen of Juventus is named as a potential arrival in the Football Insider report but it’s revealed that the Spaniard is seen more as a long-term project rather than a first-team ready signing.
Other players mentioned have been Goncalo Inacio, Piero Hincapie, Willian Pacho and Leny Yoro. However, after declaring their interest in the young Frenchman, the Reds could only watch on as he joined Manchester United.
