Insider Fabrizio Romano has confirmed on his YouTube channel that Liverpool are in constant daily contact with PSG regarding a potential transfer of 23-year-old winger Bradley Barcola.
The French winger has reportedly decided against signing a new deal with the reigning Champions League winners and is keen to make the move to Anfield before the summer transfer window closes.
Financial Disagreements and Status of Talks
- Demands from PSG: The Parisians have made it clear they will only part ways with the player for a fee of €150 million (£128.5 million).
- Initial figures from Liverpool: The Merseysiders have yet to submit an official bid but have indicated verbal figures that significantly fall short of Paris Saint-Germain's demands.
- Player's conditions: Personal terms between Liverpool and Barcola are unlikely to present an issue, as the player is fully on board with Andoni Iraola's project.
Domino Effect in the Transfer Market
Romano noted that Barcola's transfer could be influenced by PSG's aggressive activity in the market. Should PSG successfully secure signings such as Ferran Torres, alongside their recent acquisitions of Manes Akliush and Mika Godts, the club may adopt a more flexible position in negotiations with Liverpool.
As it stands, both clubs continue to discuss the financial structure of the deal.
