Liverpool leads winger signing race, expert confirms despite rivals

Liverpool leads winger signing race, expert confirms despite rivals

Liverpool is believed to be ahead of Bayern Munich in the race to secure Paris Saint-Germain winger Bradley Barcola.

The 23‑year‑old has attracted attention from both clubs, but his contract with PSG expires in 2028 and no extension has been negotiated, reducing his cost for interested parties.

Bayern’s budget constraints make the move more expensive for them, whereas Liverpool appear willing to meet the price demanded for the left‑winger.

Andoni Iraola waves to the fans

Should Bayern miss out, the German side will still need a winger, especially with Michael Olise’s future uncertain and potential departures on the horizon.

Liverpool’s recent high‑profile signings have not translated into trophies, and acquiring Barcola could help fill the void left by Mohamed Salah’s departure on the left flank.

The outcome of the transfer will shape the squads of both clubs, with Bayern potentially having to look elsewhere if the Reds secure the player.
