Bradley Barcola, the 22-year-old striker recruited by Paris Saint-Germain in the summer of 2023 with a contract running until June 2028, has taken some time to establish himself in Luis Enrique’s team. His rise to prominence has attracted a lot of interest. According to L’Equipe, there have been initial discussions about an extension, but nothing has yet been agreed.
“Exchanges between the two parties have already taken place.
“Exchanges between the two parties have already taken place. But the arrival of Luis Campos has changed PSG’s habits when it comes to lease extensions. The Portuguese manager is sending out the message that a written offer of extension can only be received, at the very least, at the end of the second season at the club. As was the case recently with the extensions of Vitinha and Nuno Mendes.
Clearly, we need to be patient. This offer and concrete negotiations with Bradley Barcola’s representatives will therefore come at the end of the Club World Cup (June 14 – July 13).
“Barcola did not wish to take a position before the end of the season.”
Could Bradley Barcola not agree to an extension? We haven’t reached that extreme yet, but the Frenchman’s position is clear: he hasn’t wished to position himself before the end of the season.”
The sports paper insists on suspense, with a certain amount of vagueness. But we’re still a long way from a deadlock between PSG and Barcola, let alone a departure. There’s no hurry with just over 3 years left on his contract.
Paris is not under pressure, and discussions can still take place. Unless the striker requests a departure this summer. But this scenario is still a long way off. Now it’s time for the competition, and for PSG and their player to set their sights high.
