Arsenal Keeps Eye on PSG's Bradley Barcola Amid Competition from Liverpool

Arsenal continues to pursue Bradley Barcola, the 23-year-old forward from Paris Saint-Germain, even after losing out on Morgan Rogers, who recently joined Chelsea from Aston Villa. Barcola caught attention with his three goals in eight games during the World Cup, boosting his profile as a promising attacker.

PSG May Let Barcola Go if Right Offer Comes

Paris Saint-Germain might allow Barcola to leave if they receive an offer that meets their expectations before the transfer window closes. The club is reportedly aiming to sign Yan Diomande, which could reduce Barcola's chances for regular playing time. Currently, Barcola ranks behind players like Ousmane Dembele, Khvicha Kvaratskhelia, and Desire Doue at PSG, but the club still values him and would prefer to keep him unless a strong offer arrives.

Arsenal’s Renewed Interest After Rogers Move

The report from Sky Sports News highlights that Arsenal admires Barcola and may rekindle their interest as they seek new attacking options. The Gunners are close to signing Christos Tzolis from Club Brugge for around 34 million euros, intending to fill the void left by Leandro Trossard’s departure.

Liverpool Also Competing for Barcola

Liverpool remains interested in adding Barcola to their squad as they adjust their attack post-Mohamed Salah era. Though they've already signed Victor Munoz from Osasuna, more acquisitions are planned. Financial terms with PSG appear to be the main barrier to securing Barcola. Manager Andoni Iraola has expressed the need for another wide player, and Liverpool also reportedly approached Monaco’s Maghnes Akliouche.
