Why it matters
This represents a significant high-value transfer in European football, signaling Liverpool's aggressive strategy to rebuild their attacking lineup.
By Sami Mokbel , Senior football correspondent and Aadam Patel , Football reporter Published 11 minutes ago Liverpool have agreed a deal worth up to £123m for Paris St-Germain forward Bradley Barcola.
PSG initially valued the France attacker at £145m, but the Reds have agreed a package worth an initial £106m with £17m in potential add-ons.
The 23-year-old is expected to have a medical this weekend before signing a long-term contract at Anfield.
Barcola is right footed but prefers to play on the left wing and his likely arrival creates further doubt around Cody Gakpo's future at Anfield.
Multiple sources have told BBC Sport both Tottenham Hotspur and Manchester City have shown interest in the Netherlands forward.
Liverpool are also in the market for a right winger, having explored moves for Brighton's Yankuba Minteh and Crystal Palace's Ismaila Sarr.
