Bradley Barcola targeted by Arsenal and Liverpool in transfer race

Paris Saint‑Germain winger Bradley Barcola, 23, has drawn intense interest from two Premier League clubs after a breakout season in which he contributed 20 goals and a standout performance for France at the World Cup, including a goal against Senegal.

Arsenal are preparing a major summer bid, with manager Mikel Arteta looking to add firepower to his attack and having also shortlisted Julian Alvarez and Morgan Rogers. Liverpool are in parallel pursuit, aiming to strengthen their flanks after Mohamed Salah’s departure and amid speculation over Cody Gakpo’s future. Both clubs see Barcola’s pace, technical ability and goal‑scoring record as ideal for the Premier League.

Paris Saint‑Germain have not confirmed their stance, but the situation is expected to resolve before the transfer window closes. The outcome could reshape the attacking options of two of England’s biggest clubs for the upcoming season.
