Bradley Barcola, the 23-year-old French winger, has inked a £123 million deal to join Liverpool from Paris Saint-Germain, marking a significant move for the Premier League champions. The transfer, finalized on Monday, concludes a lengthy saga and sees Barcola sign a five-year contract with the Reds. An initial payment of £106 million is followed by £17 million in potential add-ons.
Barcola, a two-time UEFA Champions League winner with PSG, expressed his ambition on his first day at Liverpool, stating his intent to bring back the winning culture that propelled the team to the English Premier League title two seasons ago. "It took a long time but I'm really happy today to be able to play for Liverpool and all I want is to be on the pitch and be able to play," he said.
"I hope to achieve very big things. First of all, winning the Premier League – it's one of my biggest dreams in my life. It is to do that and to stay in this team in the long term – that's why I signed a long contract – and I hope I can do it."
Barcola, who spent his formative years at Olympic Lyon before joining PSG in 2023, was a pivotal player in the French side's all-conquering era. He contributed 20 goals in 49 matches during the 2023-24 season and featured in every match for France during their World Cup campaign for the 2026 tournament.
