Bradley Barcola is a highly sought-after player on the transfer market. Arsenal have just joined his list of suitors, as PSG and the winger are unable to reach an agreement on a contract extension.
Having embarked on a major wave of contract renewals in recent months, PSG are still in discussions with Ousmane Dembele and Bradley Barcola. Le Parisien revealed that the two parties were not close to an agreement at the end of 2025 for the former Lyon man, with the capital club looking to add a variable element to the salaries of all their players.
A situation that has reached the ears of numerous European clubs. According to TeamTalk, several European clubs have recently enquired about Bradley Barcola's situation. The French winger, who saw Khvicha Kvaratskhelia arrive in Paris last year, is in deep reflection about his long-term future.
Bradley Barcola's heavyweight suitors
Liverpool's interest has been known since the summer and was even reignited after Alexander Isak's serious injury and the failure to land Antoine Semenyo. Bayern Munich have also been in the race for some time and notably made a discreet attempt during the last summer window.
However, the British outlet specifies that “most discussions have taken place with potential Premier League suitors and we can confirm that Arsenal, Chelsea, Manchester City and Liverpool have all been contacted and are in regular contact” with the Lyon academy graduate.
PSG do not want to sell Bradley Barcola in January
However, for all these suitors, PSG maintain that the 23-year-old is not available on the market. The capital club intend to keep their winger and claim not to have received any approaches. Intermediaries are nevertheless being engaged in this matter, according to the same source.
In any case, the European champions are not expected to open the door to a Bradley Barcola departure this winter. However, English clubs know that the France international could be an option for next summer, especially if the two parties fail to reach an agreement on a contract extension.
“The links with England are real, they know he is not available currently, but as soon as he is, they will seize the opportunity,” a source told TeamTalk. A fierce battle is therefore expected if the Lyon native becomes available on the market.
