Liverpool and Arsenal Eye PSG’s Bradley Barcola as Contract Talks Stall

PSG plan a post‑final review of the 23-year-old’s future after stalled contract talks.

Overview

  • L’Équipe reporting, relayed by Le10 Sport and Yahoo Sports, says PSG will revisit Barcola’s situation after the Champions League final, with talks running for months without an extension despite a contract that runs to 2028.
  • Liverpool and Arsenal are tracking the France winger for a possible summer move, with some reports claiming he is open to joining Liverpool.
  • Liverpool’s recruitment focus could shift away from Barcola because the club is prioritizing a right winger to keep a pathway clear for 17-year-old prospect Rio Ngumoha on the left.
  • Barcola has struggled for guaranteed starts under Luis Enrique, often sitting behind Khvicha Kvaratskhelia, Ousmane Dembélé and Désiré Doué, and he was recently substituted at halftime in a league match despite no injury.
  • Valuations in the press vary widely, with Spanish reports citing a price near €95 million, and with no bids reported, any movement is expected to hinge on PSG’s decisions after the final.
