Reds Continue Spending Frenzy After Wirtz and Kerkez Deals, Eyeing French Winger as Next Marquee Signing
Liverpool are making waves in the transfer market this summer, with their ambitious spending spree showing no signs of slowing down. After securing deals for Florian Wirtz and Milos Kerkez, the Premier League champions are now targeting Paris Saint-Germain’s rising star Bradley Barcola in a move that could exceed €120 million.
According to The Sun, the 22-year-old French winger has emerged as the next priority for Arne Slot’s side, though prising him away from PSG won’t be easy. The Ligue 1 giants are reluctant to sell, and Bayern Munich are also circling, viewing Barcola as a top target for their attack. However, the German club may turn their attention to Athletic Club’s Nico Williams, believing PSG will hold firm on their young star.
Barcola, who joined PSG from Lyon last summer, has an Estimated Transfer Value (ETV) of €71.6 million, making him one of the most valuable players in France. Despite losing his starting spot to Desire Doue in recent weeks, his potential has made him a hot commodity in Europe.
Liverpool, meanwhile, are shattering their own transfer records in a bold statement of intent. The impending €150 million arrival of Wirtz from Bayer Leverkusen will not only break the club’s transfer record but also set a new Premier League benchmark. Kerkez is expected to follow from Bournemouth for €53 million, while Jeremie Frimpong has already joined from Leverkusen for €40 million.
If the Barcola deal goes through, the Reds’ summer spending could surpass a staggering €360 million—a clear message to their rivals that they are determined to defend their Premier League crown with reinforcements of the highest caliber.
