Barcola joins Liverpool from PSG in £123m move

Barcola joins Liverpool from PSG in £123m move

Liverpool has secured the signing of France forward Bradley Barcola from Paris St-Germain for a fee of up to £123 million. The 23-year-old, whose contract is set for five years, will initially cost Liverpool £106 million with potential add-ons of £17 million. Barcola has committed to Anfield, expressing his excitement to play for the club and aiming for significant achievements, including winning the Premier League. The England international prefers playing on the left wing but is adaptable across all forward positions.

Last season, Barcola scored 13 goals and provided seven assists in 49 games across all competitions for PSG. He was a key player in France's World Cup campaign, contributing three goals and helping the team reach the third-place playoff. Barcola's move to PSG in 2023 from Lyon, initially valued at £38.5 million, was bolstered by a £38.5 million fee that also covered a solidarity payment owed to Lyon.
