Liverpool sign Barcola from PSG for £124 million
LONDON: France winger Bradley Barcola has become Liverpool’s second-most expensive signing after joining the Premier League giants from Paris Saint-Germain on Monday.
Liverpool have signed French winger Bradley Barcola from Paris Saint-Germain for £124 million, making him the club's second-most expensive signing. The fee, which includes €20 million in bonuses, is the highest ever paid for a Ligue 1 player and the 10th £100 million-plus transfer in Premier League history. Barcola, 23, had not played for PSG this season due to transfer speculation.
He expressed his excitement about joining Liverpool and his goal of winning the Premier League, becoming the third forward costing over £100 million that the club has signed in two years. Barcola, a member of PSG's recent Champions League-winning squad, scored 39 goals in 152 appearances during his time in France and has long been a target for Liverpool. He is expected to play on the left wing, with Cody Gakpo potentially moved down the pecking order.
