Paris Saint-Germain would be willing to let Bradley Barcola, 23, a PSG winger, and Ibrahim Mbaye, 18, also a PSG winger, join Liverpool for a total of €175 million. The information was reported by RomainCG75 on X, while Arsenal are also said to remain in the race for Barcola. At this stage, no agreement has been announced.

This report is part of a saga that has already been ongoing for some time. Liverpool have been tracking Bradley Barcola for several weeks and have also made a move for Ibrahim Mbaye. So the prospect of both players heading to the Reds has not come out of nowhere.

The main new element is above all this overall fee of €175 million and PSG’s supposed willingness to consider a deal at that level. It is still a figure that should be treated with caution, however, in the absence of stronger confirmation at this stage. PSG’s demands for Barcola have long been particularly high, and Mbaye also carries significant market value.

Arsenal’s presence in the Barcola case could also influence the negotiations. If the Gunners’ interest becomes concrete, that competition would logically give PSG more room to hold firm on their terms. For now, however, Liverpool remain one of the main players in both situations.
