Overview
- Multiple outlets reported on Saturday, June 13, that 23-year-old Bradley Barcola has formally asked Paris Saint-Germain to let him leave the club this summer.
- PSG value Barcola at about £60 million and have publicly called him 'not for sale' while privately signalling they might sell if they secure a suitable replacement.
- Barcola is under contract until summer 2028 and has pushed for a move because he made only around 21 league starts last season and saw limited chances in key matches.
- Arsenal and Liverpool are both being tracked as leading suitors, but no formal bids have been reported and any concrete negotiations are likely to wait until after the World Cup.
- Reports link PSG interest in Barcelona’s Ferran Torres as a possible replacement, a factor that could determine whether PSG softens its stance and accelerates any transfer.
