The Bradley Barcola saga could be entering its decisive phase. After strengthening their attack with Ferran Torres and Mika Godts, PSG are reportedly far more open to letting their French winger leave. Most importantly, Paris are said to have made a major concession on their asking price.
Bradley Barcola is edging closer to the PSG exit. Until now, the French champions had been demanding as much as €170 million to let him go. But according to TEAMtalk, the Parisian hierarchy are now ready to discuss a deal at around €145 million. A €25 million drop that could completely revive Liverpool’s hopes.
Liverpool Closing In on Barcola
The Reds remain firmly in the race and have reportedly already put €125 million on the table. PSG rejected that offer, but the gap between the two clubs is now believed to be only around €20 million. The deal has never looked closer to being unlocked. Liverpool have yet to meet Paris’ new valuation, but the two sides are moving significantly closer. Barcola’s position is also said to be clear: with two years left on his contract, the France international has reportedly rejected an extension and would welcome a move to Liverpool.

Liverpool see Barcola as a major piece of their future attack, and convincing the player to move to Anfield would not be an issue. The English club now needs to find the right formula to make PSG accept. Cody Gakpo could also prove decisive: according to Fabrizio Romano, Liverpool still want to sign two wingers before the end of the transfer window and could accelerate if the Dutchman joins Tottenham. His departure would free up both squad space and additional funds for a push for Barcola.
Only a few weeks ago, selling Bradley Barcola seemed almost unthinkable. But the arrivals of Ferran Torres and Mika Godts have completely changed the situation. Luis Enrique now has more attacking options, allowing PSG to consider a huge offer without necessarily weakening the squad. Liverpool have offered €125 million, PSG now want around €145 million and Barcola is reportedly ready to leave: all the ingredients are there for a blockbuster transfer before the window closes. The Reds’ next move could be the decisive one.
