Exclusive: Liverpool hopeful on Bradley Barcola deal

Anfield Watch understands that Liverpool view Bradley Barcola as a real opportunity this summer.

Liverpool will be in the market for a winger this summer. The Reds failed to replace Luis Diaz after selling him to Bayern Munich and have felt the impact this season.

And as they consider new signings, Anfield Watch understands that Bradley Barcola is viewed as a real opportunity. The Frenchman has only started 15 Ligue 1 matches this season and could leave Paris Saint-Germain in the summer.

Liverpool believe there's a real chance he does and if it happens, that's a solid market opportunity. Barcola, after all, will likely leave for less than his true value.

That's the kind of signing Liverpool love and they'll see if a deal can be done in the summer. While there are certainly other options, Barcola may well end up being the best of the lot.

The 23-year-old is someone they've followed for years now and he was linked last summer, too. But this could be the year Liverpool finally get their man.

Bradley Barcola: Situation Summary

Champions League Return and Form

As of 19 April 2026, Bradley Barcola has made a timely return to the Paris Saint-Germain squad following a month-long layoff with a severe ankle ligament sprain. The 23-year-old winger sustained the injury during a 3–0 win over Chelsea in March, causing him to miss France’s friendlies against Brazil and Colombia. He returned to action on 14 April, featuring as a substitute in PSG's 2–0 second-leg victory at Anfield to secure a 4–0 aggregate win over Liverpool. Barcola has been in prolific form this season, recording 10 goals in Ligue 1 and providing four assists in 13 Champions League matches, with a recorded top speed of 36.72 km/h.
