Bradley Barcola drops transfer update as Liverpool alert to double deal

Paris Saint-Germain star Bradley Barcola continues to be credited as a potential transfer target for Liverpool

Liverpool are continuing to be linked with a move for Paris Saint-Germain star Bradley Barcola, just days after being handed a major blow regarding the future of Yan Diomande. The Reds are expected to have a busy summer transfer window ahead, but have so far added just one new signing to their squad.

Victor Munoz was signed by Liverpool from Osasuna last month in a deal worth around £34.5million, but there are still rumours about what the club may do next.

Diomande was a player heavily mentioned as a player of interest to Liverpool, with the Reds believed to have expressed a willingness to pay £86million to sign the RB Leipzig star.

However, reports emerged claiming that Diomande would prefer a move to PSG, leaving Liverpool to assess other potential targets this summer.

Barcola is one player who has been heavily linked with a move to Liverpool, and now the 23-year-old has provided an update on his future.

The winger, who is currently with the France squad for this summer’s World Cup, is reported by RMC Sport journalist Fabrice Hawkins to have said: “I am focused on the World Cup, what will happen after that, I don't know.”

It remains to be seen what the future holds for Barcola, with fresh updates continuing to emerge about where the France international will be playing his football next season.

The Athletic have reported that even though Barcola may be a player of interest to Liverpool, PSG are not looking to sell the forward.

The report also claims that the Champions League winners would value Barcola at a fee in excess of the £116million that Manchester City are paying to sign Elliot Anderson, if an exit were to be sanctioned.

Arsenal have also previously been credited with an interest in signing Barcola as they look to strengthen their wide forward options.
