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 journalist Florian Plettenberg, Bayern Munich have even made him a priority.
“EXCL | Bradley Barcola is FC Bayern’s top target in their search for a high-profile left winger!
Difficult to realise, but Bayern are actively exploring a potential transfer of the 22 y/o Frenchman.
If a move for Barcola proves impossible, Nico Williams is the top alternative. Max Eberl is also keeping other options open – including Mitoma, Leão and Gakpo.”
This is not impossible, as Barcola is a talented player who could well be of interest to big clubs. And Bayern Munich need to strengthen this position. However, we must remain cautious. It’s just a rumour, and this journalist isn’t the most reliable person to be talking about a case he’s launched and which has come to fruition. Even if it does happen.
As he himself points out, the transfer promises to be “difficult” in any case. There’s nothing to say that Barcola would like to leave PSG, or that the latter is a seller.
