Bradley Barcola to Keep PSG Shirt Number with Liverpool
Barcola will keep the 29 he wore at Paris Saint-Germain and first picked because of a video game.
Liverpool FC has secured the signing of 23-year-old French international left winger Bradley Barcola from Paris Saint-Germain, with the deal potentially worth up to £125 million including add-ons. The question on everyone's mind is which shirt number Barcola will wear for the Reds. The answer is 29, the same number he wore during his time at PSG.
Barcola chose this number as it was the one worn by the protagonist in the FIFA career mode "The Journey" which he played growing up. He has expressed that he always imagined wearing that number at the highest levels of the sport, so he decided to continue wearing it with Liverpool FC. Additionally, Barcola will continue to have "B.
Barcola" written on the back of his shirt as he did at PSG. Fans can expect to see the new signing in action for Liverpool FC starting from the 2026 season.
