Fabrizio Romano stated that PSG winger Bradley Barcola won’t join Liverpool any time soon.
Transfer Window Starts Strong For Liverpool, But Barcola Deal Stalls
Liverpool have come out swinging in this summer’s transfer window. Jeremie Frimpong is already signed for £29.5 million. A record-breaking £116 million move for Florian Wirtz almost done. The Reds are wasting no time in building a strong squad under Arne Slot.
Talks are also taking place for Bournemouth’s Milos Kerkez, which highlights how serious the club is about defending the Premier League title.
However, the buzz around a possible swoop for **Paris Saint-Germain**’s Bradley Barcola has taken a hit. Trusted transfer expert Fabrizio Romano confirmed via his GIVEMESPORT newsletter that Liverpool’s interest in Barcola isn’t “imminent or concrete.” Despite earlier reports of a £100 million move, it seems the deal isn’t close.
Barcola Move Depends on Diaz’s Future and PSG’s Plans
The youngster had a good year at PSG and showed himself regularly in all of their Ligue 1 games. Though, PSG have big names like Ousmane Dembele and Khvicha Kvaratskhelia, so there is only so much game time for the young winger. Given that, there is talk he might look for regular football elsewhere.
Also, Luis Diaz is also being tracked by both Barcelona and Saudi clubs. So, his exit could have helped Barcola join the Reds. Slot would surely welcome the young winger to partner with Wirtz and Salah. He will adding more firepower and flair.
But, Romano’s latest update has cooled down the excitement. PSG reportedly want to keep their star for next season, believing he still has a big role to play.
While the window is far from over, and 11 weeks are still remaining for moves to be made. So, any transfer for Barcola looks like one for later. For now, Liverpool fans may need to be patient as the situation unfolds.
