All the usual reliable Liverpool reporters confirmed the Reds’ interest in Guehi a couple of weeks back.
Since then it’s been speculated whether Guehi would favour a move to Merseyside - either this summer as a part of a mooted £40m transfer or else in 2026 as a free agent.
The Chelsea academy graduate would need guarantees of first-team football if he were to make the move - a prospect that would be more achievable on Merseyside if Konate leaves.
And maybe Guehi will have been persuaded to move to the Premier League champions following a meeting with one of the club’s No1 celebrity fans this week.
Trevor Noah, the US-based comedian and talk show host, is a long-standing supporter of the Reds - travelling to the 2022 Champions League final in Paris.
He has also been pictured on several occasions with Liverpool stars and is never shy about expressing his devotion to the club on social media.
With Guehi Stateside following the conclusion of the Crystal Palace season, he posed for a photo alongside Noah in New York. “Pleasure to meet you, Trevor & watch you live! Thanks, bro.” Guehi wrote on Instagram.
If Noah is as big a Liverpool fan as he claims, then he will have surely been making a sales pitch to Guehi.
Hopefully the South African comic has put in enough groundwork on Guehi that Richard Hughes can take over to seal the deal.
