The Crystal Palace center-half nearly moved to Newcastle in the summer, but the two clubs could not agree on a fee.
Per The Mirror, the Reds are huge admirers of Guehi and think he can replace Virgil Van Dijk in the long term.
He may be seen as someone who can even partner Van Dijk for a couple of more seasons before the Dutchman leaves the club.
Newcastle will then have to decide if they want to reignite their interest in him from last summer.
