The future of Bradley Barcola at Paris Saint-Germain (PSG) has become a major talking point in recent weeks. The French international’s contract negotiations with the club have dragged on for months without resolution, leaving his long-term prospects at the Parc des Princes in question.

Rumors of a potential departure have intensified as Liverpool enters the frame as a serious suitor. The English Premier League giants are reportedly keen to replace Mohamed Salah following his exit, and Barcola fits their profile as a dynamic attacking talent. The France international, who emerged from Lyon’s youth academy, has been evaluating his options carefully.

Arsenal’s focus shifts elsewhere

While Liverpool appears to be the most active bidder for Barcola, Arsenal has also been linked with the 21-year-old. However, the Gunners may not consider him their top priority. According to insider reports, Morgan Rogers of Aston Villa has emerged as a more appealing target. The English international, currently competing in the World Cup, was previously rumored to be on PSG’s radar before his club’s interest in him grew.

PSG makes progress on Diomandé deal

The uncertainty surrounding Barcola’s future coincides with PSG’s accelerated pursuit of Yan Diomandé, the prolific Ivory Coast striker from RB Leipzig. After a standout season with 15 goals and 11 assists, Diomandé has reportedly agreed terms with Paris. Interestingly, Liverpool is also monitoring the Ivorian forward’s situation. Additionally, PSG has reached an agreement with Maghnes Akliouche, according to recent reports, while negotiations continue with AS Monaco for his services.
