Just in: David Ornstein says Liverpool another blow in pursuit of 'elite' winger after Diomande

Liverpool have suffered another blow in their pursuit of signing a new winger, alongside Yan Diomande, who wants to join Paris Saint-Germain.

Signing a new winger is a major priority for Liverpool in the summer transfer window as they look to find a replacement for Egyptian forward Mohamed Salah.

The Reds were pursuing a move to sign RB Leipzig winger Yan Diomande, but he's now prioritising a move to Paris Saint-Germain.

It was back to the drawing board for the Reds, who desperately need to find a replacement for Salah this summer.

It was a disappointing 25-26 season for Liverpool, who were likely to spend big this summer, but their need to reinforce their squad has grown after players left the club.

According to The Athletic's David Ornstein, Liverpool have suffered another blow in their pursuit of a new winger.

PSG consider Bradley Barcola as not for sale, regardless of new arrivals and his reluctance to sign a new contract.

Reports claimed that Liverpool were planning talks to sign Barcola after missing out on a deal for Diomande, but it appears they could struggle to secure his signature too.

Ornstein suggests that PSG value Barcola higher than what Manchester City are spending on Elliot Anderson, which is in the region of £116m.

Barcola, described as elite, doesn't appear to be too happy at PSG due to the lack of minutes, but the French club are insistent on keeping him in France.
