What the report says

Liverpool have announced the signing of France winger Bradley Barcola from Paris Saint-Germain, according to Al Jazeera. The 23-year-old completed a medical on Monday before finalising the move, which had been widely linked through the summer. The report says the transfer is understood to be a five-year deal and part of a package worth about £120 million ($162 million).

Barcola joins Liverpool after two seasons at PSG, where he became part of title-winning teams that achieved domestic and Champions League success. He began his career at Lyon before moving to Paris in 2023. Al Jazeera reported that he had recently lost a regular starting role at PSG, with Desire Doue’s rise contributing to speculation over a possible departure.

The transfer comes as Liverpool look to strengthen their attack following Mohamed Salah’s move to Turkish club Trabzonspor earlier in the summer. Barcola said on Liverpool’s website that he was proud to join the club and hoped to achieve major success, including winning the Premier League. Those comments were published by Liverpool and relayed by Al Jazeera.

Barcola, who played for France at the 2026 World Cup, adds pace and experience at a time when Liverpool are reshaping their forward line. The move is notable both for its size and for its timing, as the club seeks to replace one of its most important recent attackers.
