Initial reports suggested PSG had been holding out for a fee in the region of £145 million to £170 million for the talented forward. However, fresh talks between the clubs have seen the French champions reduce their asking price, paving the way for Liverpool to agree to a guaranteed sum of just over £100 million, with a further £20 million in performance-related add-ons.
Bradley Barcola's Anfield Ambition and PSG Stance
Barcola, who celebrates his 24th birthday on September 2, is understood to be keen on a move to Anfield. Reports indicate he has already agreed personal terms on a long-term contract with Liverpool, having grown frustrated with his current squad status under Luis Enrique at PSG. The winger has not featured in any of PSG's opening three games of the 2026/27 season, including being left out of the squad for their 2-2 draw against Rennes.
The French international originally joined PSG from Lyon in August 2023 for €45 million, signing a five-year contract that runs until June 2028. However, he has reportedly decided against extending his stay in the French capital, signaling his desire for a new challenge.
