Arsenal, Liverpool and Bayern Munich are interested in PSG winger Bradley Barcola. The French forward has not extended his contract and could leave this summer.
Bradley Barcola has not yet extended his contract with PSG. Arsenal is being kept informed by his agent and would make an offer this summer.
The timing of this report is bound to raise eyebrows three weeks before the Champions League final between the two teams, but it is not so surprising given the situation of this case. Arsenal is very interested in Barcola, 23.
The PSG winger has not found an agreement to extend his contract with the Parisian club, despite discussions that began several months ago. Reportedly unhappy with his status, the former Lyon player believes he is the last man in the attack.
Again against Bayern Munich, Barcola was a substitute, and he did not manage to change his coach's mind with his far from impressive performance. The French national team attacker has a contract until 2028.
But for PSG, it's clear: if he doesn't extend by the end of the season, a departure will be considered. Because his refusal will be interpreted as a desire to look elsewhere.
And that seems to be what Barcola wants. Indeed, according to journalist Florian Plettenberg, Arsenal is closely monitoring the situation of the former Lyon player and already has all the necessary information to make an offer to PSG.
Bayern Munich, Barcelona, and Liverpool are also interested, but Arsenal is by far the most motivated at this time.
A transfer is now being considered, especially if a good offer lands on Nasser Al-Khelaifi's desk. On his side, Barcola's agent is also working on a possible departure from PSG, and, according to the Spanish press, he has already set the conditions for his player's arrival at the clubs interested in signing him.
With three spots for four players, PSG's attack has produced a victim, and it seems that the French attacker has decided to see if there is not something better for him elsewhere.
