The player in question is of course Bradley Barcola. In recent weeks, it has seemed almost impossible for Liverpool to get the transfer of the French lightning winger through, but the “we’ll see” comment is a clear sign that it is more about Liverpool’s willingness to pay than PSG blocking the exit. Now transfer journalist Romano comes with the latest update.

This is reminiscent of last summer’s transfer chaos with Alexander Isak. Liverpool and the player had decided, £125 million was where the limit had to be pushed to secure the transfer. Liverpool’s continued high level of activity in the negotiations shows that the Premier League club will not give up here either.
