Liverpool have intensified their interest in Bradley Barcola, making fresh contact with Paris Saint-Germain within the last 24 hours over a summer move for the French international, TEAMtalk sources confirm.
The 23-year-old has been made available by PSG as the club looks to balance its books after heavy spending, and Barcola has signalled his desire to leave for regular first-team football. Personal terms are not expected to be an issue if a deal with the Merseyside club progresses.
Long admired by Liverpool’s recruitment team, Barcola fits new manager Andoni Iraola’s vision for a pacey, dynamic attack—particularly with life after Mo Salah on the horizon.
The Frenchman has 39 goals and 37 assists in 152 appearances for PSG and has impressed at international level, including World Cup strikes against Senegal and Sweden.
Despite his quality, Barcola started only 21 of PSG’s 38 league games last season, prompting his openness to a new challenge. A Premier League move would offer consistent top-level competition and accelerate his development.
Liverpool have renewed dialogue after difficulties signing RB Leipzig’s Yan Diomande, and while no agreement is in place, the club is confident of further additions before the window closes.
Club insiders remain relaxed, with more updates expected in the coming days as discussions continue.
