Liverpool exploring deal for PSG winger Bradley Barcola | OneFootball

Liverpool have added Bradley Barcola to their list of high-profile attacking targets as they continue to reshape their squad this summer.

According to L’Equipe, the Paris Saint-Germain winger is a serious option for the Premier League champions, who have already made headlines with bold moves in the transfer market.

Alexander Isak remains a top priority, with the Reds submitting an offer between €120-€138 million, but Newcastle United are unwilling to sell.

That stance has forced Liverpool to keep their options open, and Barcola is now firmly on the radar.

The 22-year-old was a standout performer in PSG’s treble-winning 2024-25 campaign, bagging 22 goals and 19 assists in all competitions.

Despite facing competition from Ousmane Dembele and Desire Doue in the front line, Barcola established himself as one of the club’s most influential players.

Liverpool are not alone in tracking the French international, but their long-standing interest could give them an edge.

The club have followed his progress since his days at Lyon and may hope their persistence pays off.

Barcola joined PSG from Lyon in a €50m deal two years ago, and they are reluctant to sell.

It would take a bid of at least €100m to tempt them, particularly from a club expected to challenge for the Champions League.

Liverpool have been aggressive in the market. More than £260m has been spent on Florian Wirtz, Hugo Ekitike, Milos Kerkez and Jeremie Frimpong.

A wave of big-money outgoings has partly offset this. Caoimhin Kelleher, Trent Alexander-Arnold, Jarell Quansah, Luis Diaz and Tyler Morton have all departed. Darwin Nunez is also expected to leave.

The combined total in player sales is around £190m.

Harvey Elliott could add another £50m if ongoing talks with RB Leipzig are successful. Reinforcements are being sought in defence, but the club are focused on adding more firepower.

Another player under consideration is Rodrygo. However, with Real Madrid reluctant to sell, the path to Barcola may prove more straightforward.
