Bradley Barcola, the 22-year-old striker signed by Paris Saint-Germain in the summer of 2023 with a contract until June 2028, took a little time but finally established himself in Luis Enrique’s team. He also earned a place in the French national team. A rise that could attract covetousness. RMC Sport confirmed Liverpool’s interest this Wednesday, indicating what it would take for a transfer to materialize.
“The 100 million euro mark does not seem unattainable for Liverpool.”
“First, Barcola would need to express a desire to leave. Luis Enrique insists on having players who are fully committed to his project.
Then, the price set by PSG would have to be met by potential suitors. Starting at €100 million twice what Barcola originally cost — the Parisian club might begin to consider discussions. As of now, neither of these two conditions has been met, and it’s necessary to closely watch both Bradley Barcola’s position and that of PSG.“
A transfer of Barcola to Liverpool, or another European giant, is not entirely impossible. Football moves fast and can bring surprises. The French international could be tempted by such challenges like conquering the Premier League and establishing himself with the Reds. However, at this stage, there’s nothing concrete regarding a transfer.
The player hasn’t asked to leave and doesn’t appear close to doing so. PSG won’t easily open the door, and their asking price is at least €100 million, perhaps even more, especially as Barcola still has several years left on his contract. The more likely scenario remains a contract extension.
Clubs are understandably making inquiries — and perhaps his entourage is letting such interest leak to apply a bit of pressure.
For now, there’s no real concern. Especially since concrete interest from Liverpool, including a possible offer, is far from certain.
