Liverpool and PSG Reportedly Reach Basic Agreement for Bradley Barcola

A reported deal would give Liverpool a targeted wide attacker to replace Mohamed Salah pending final contract and payment details.

Overview

  • British journalist David Ornstein reported on social media that Liverpool and Paris Saint‑Germain have a basic agreement to transfer Bradley Barcola, but neither club has confirmed the move.
  • The package is reported to be worth up to €140 million, according to the coverage, with remaining contractual and payment details said to be still to be finalised.
  • Sources say Liverpool previously offered about €115 million while PSG had sought roughly €170 million, and the new figure represents a compromise between those positions.
  • Barcola, 23, is under contract with PSG until 2028 but has indicated he will not extend his deal and was omitted from PSG’s match squad, aligning with reports that a move is imminent.
  • Barcola moved from Olympique Lyon to PSG in 2023, has scored regularly for club and country, and a completed transfer would give Liverpool a young, pacey wide option to plug the gap left by Salah while also reflecting high fees across elite transfers.
