Bradley Barcola (23) could leave Paris Saint-Germain at the end of the season amid reports that the Ligue 1 champions are looking to add another forward to their squad this summer, as per a report from L’Équipe.

Barcola has become more of a backup option for PSG in recent weeks. The France international is best off the left, where Khvicha Kvaratskhelia has become undroppable for the big games. His current contract runs until 2028. With the UEFA Champions League final coming up, all contract extension talks are on hold; Barcola’s entourage assures that there will be talks after the UCL final against Arsenal.

L’Équipe understands that the Emirates Stadium could actually be a potential destination for the France international this summer. The Premier League is the most likely destination for the winger, who has long been linked with Liverpool. 

Although it is not lost on the Merseyside club that Barcola is best on the left. Liverpool are more keen on adding a player on the right, in order to favour the development of Rio Ngumoha (17) on the left.
