Premier League
Liverpool is close to finalizing the signing of Bradley Barcola, a 23-year-old winger from Paris Saint-Germain, after making progress with both the player and the French club. The deal is around 128 million euros, but there are still details to be ironed out before it can be considered closed.
The conversations are not new. Over the past few weeks, Liverpool has stepped up talks for Barcola, and the player has shown willingness to continue his career in the Premier League. Negotiating with PSG is now the crucial part of an operation that could become one of the most expensive in the summer market.
Liverpool Advances for Bradley Barcola
Barcola has been a priority for Liverpool for several weeks to strengthen the wings. The French international is under contract with Paris Saint-Germain until 2028, a circumstance that allows the Parisian club to maintain a strong position in the negotiations.
The agreement with the player does not seem to be the main issue. Recent reports from England and France suggest that Barcola is willing to make the move to Anfield, and discussions on personal terms have progressed.
The key issue lies in the price. The deal could end up around 128 million euros, although in recent weeks, higher valuations have also been mentioned by PSG. Liverpool has been negotiating for days to find a formula that can bridge the gap.
This move represents a significant investment in a player who, at 23 years old, still has room for growth. Barcola joined PSG from Olympique de Lyon in 2023 and has since become a regular player in the Parisian squad.

Paris Saint-Germain Has the Final Say
Paris Saint-Germain does not need to agree to a sale at any price. Barcola still has two years on his contract, until June 2028, and his market value is currently around 70 million euros.
Hence, the final price is the central point of the negotiations. PSG has been considering amounts higher than 128 million euros during this transfer window, while Liverpool is trying to close the deal at a figure they find acceptable.
The English club had already made a move for the winger at the end of July. Since then, new contacts have been made, and positions have been getting closer, although the latest reports indicate that negotiations are still ongoing.
Barcola also has interest from other major European clubs. Arsenal is among the teams monitoring his situation, adding pressure on Liverpool to finalize the deal before the transfer window enters its final weeks.
128 Million Euros Bring Barcola's Signing Closer to Liverpool
The 128 million euro investment would place Barcola among the most significant deals of the summer. For Liverpool, it would mean adding a winger who can play predominantly on the left and already has experience in both Ligue 1 and European competitions.
Discussions have progressed enough for the scenario to be much more concrete now than a few weeks ago. The player is open to the move, and Liverpool is in direct contact with PSG to reach a final agreement.
The next step will be to finalize the figure and payment structure. If Paris Saint-Germain accepts an operation around 128 million euros, Liverpool will be able to enter the final stage of Barcola's signing and prepare for his arrival in England.
