Liverpool and Arsenal have been put on alert after it emerged that Paris Saint-Germain forward Bradley Barcola will not sign a new contract this summer. The 23-year-old, who has a £140m price tag, is now expected to leave the French capital, with both Premier League clubs closely monitoring the situation.
Barcola, who scored three goals for France at the World Cup, has been unable to secure a regular starting spot at PSG, competing with the likes of Desire Doue and Khvicha Kvaratskhelia for minutes. He is contracted until 2031 but has refused to sign improved terms, opening the door for a summer exit.
Liverpool are believed to be leading the race for the winger, viewing him as a potential replacement for Mohamed Salah. The Reds have been actively working on a deal, with Barcola reportedly open to a move to Anfield. Arsenal are also said to have scouted the player and may accelerate their interest.
PSG have slapped a £140m valuation on the former Lyon star, which his age and recent nine-figure transfers for Morgan Rogers and Elliot Anderson are said to justify. Liverpool also need defensive reinforcements, with Joe Gomez's latest injury leaving them with only one fit senior centre-back.
