PSG’s Barcola Extension Stalls as Liverpool Keep Watch

Sources link the impasse to Barcola’s push for a bigger role despite PSG signaling top-tier wages.

Overview

Talks to extend the 23-year-old’s deal, opened months ago, are reported to be stalling according to L’Équipe via GFFN.
Barcola is under contract until 2028, and PSG are prepared to place him among their top earners to retain him.
Liverpool, previously in the race, are tipped to revisit their interest if no agreement is reached, while Bayern’s pursuit faded after signing Luis Díaz.
Barcola’s starting opportunities have tightened since Khvicha Kvaratskhelia joined in January, with Luis Enrique often favoring Kvaratskhelia, Ousmane Dembélé, and Désiré Doué in attack.
Injuries to teammates have kept Barcola involved this season, but both sides have yet to agree on the terms of a proposed new deal.
