Liverpool remain the club showing the most concrete interest in Paris Saint-Germain winger Bradley Barcola as they continue to assess attacking reinforcements ahead of the new season.
Softfootball understands that reports linking the 23-year-old French international with Barcelona are unfounded, leaving Liverpool as the leading contender should PSG decide to sanction a sale.
Any move, however, will depend on Paris Saint-Germain’s stance on Barcola’s future and the transfer fee they demand. There are currently no active negotiations over a new contract between the player and the French champions, keeping the possibility of a transfer open.
Barcola has been one of Liverpool’s priority attacking targets, with the Reds closely monitoring his situation over the past several months. Liverpool believe Barcola possesses the qualities to fit seamlessly into their attacking system and could provide another dynamic option in the final third.
With no new contract talks taking place in Paris, Barcola’s future is expected to remain one of the key transfer stories to watch as Liverpool continue exploring opportunities to bolster their squad before the window closes.
