Liverpool sign Bradley Barcola from Paris Saint-Germain

Barcola's move comes as Liverpool seek to reinforce their forward line after Mohamed Salah's departure.

Liverpool have secured the signing of France forward Bradley Barcola from Paris St-Germain for an estimated fee of £123 million. Initially valued by PSG at £145 million, Liverpool will pay an initial £106 million, with an additional £17 million in potential add-ons. The 23-year-old forward has signed a five-year contract, becoming the fifth new arrival at Anfield this summer, following Victor Munoz, Jeremy Jacquet, Ronald Araujo, and Ifeanyi Ndukwe.

Barcola expressed his excitement about joining Liverpool, stating his desire to play regularly and achieve significant goals, including winning the Premier League. He prefers playing on the left wing but can operate across the forward line. Barcola will don the number 29 shirt at Anfield and aims to strengthen Andoni Iraola's squad following the departures of Mohamed Salah, Hugo Ekitike, and potential sales of Cody Gakpo.

During the 2026 World Cup, Barcola contributed 13 goals and seven assists in 49 games for PSG, featuring in all eight matches for France and helping Les Bleus reach the third-place play-off.
