Barcola brushes off price tag and Salah comparison as he targets his own Liverpool legacy

Bradley Barcola has dismissed concerns over his £106m transfer fee and comparisons to Mohamed Salah, stating he aims to forge his own legacy at Liverpool. The France international, who joined the club from Paris Saint-Germain in the summer, scored his first goal for the Reds with a Champions League hat-trick against LASK and provided assists in recent Premier League victories over Brentford and Brighton.

Despite Salah's departure from Liverpool, Barcola acknowledges the legend's impact and his own need to make a mark on the club's history. He insists he is not under pressure from the price tag or Salah's legacy, emphasizing his desire to contribute and improve. Barcola admits his current form is not optimal and expects continued growth as he integrates with his new teammates, noting that understanding his playing style is progressing positively.
