Liverpool entered this summer’s transfer market on the defensive, compared to last summer. Where the Premier League club surged forward to £440 million signings, which included Alexander Isak and Florian Wirtz, the situation is completely different a year later. Now it is reported that Liverpool are missing out on both top candidates to replace Mo Salah.
This week, it has been reported that PSG and Yan Diomande have agreed on personal terms, but Borussia Dortmund’s sporting director promises the 19-year-old will not be sold this summer anyway. That was the top candidate. Now to the next man on the list, Bradley Barcola.

According to David Ornstein at The Athletic , Liverpool will not land on the signing of the French PSG player either:
“Paris Saint-Germain does not consider Bradley Barcola for sale, regardless of arrivals + reluctance to sign new contract. The PSG value of the 23-year-old is much higher than the £116 million MCFC spend on Anderson. Ramos, Lee and Kolo Muani are leaving the club to create squad and financial space”, reports Ornstein.
