Liverpool Step Up Pursuit of PSG Duo as One Player Agrees Personal Terms
Liverpool are intensifying their efforts to sign Bradley Barcola and Ibrahim Mbaye from Paris Saint-Germain before the summer transfer window closes. According to a report from RMC Sport, Mbaye has already reached an agreement on personal terms with Liverpool and is prepared to make the move to Anfield.
However, Liverpool still need to negotiate an agreement with PSG before the transfer can be completed. While Mbaye’s willingness to join is viewed as an important step, the clubs must still settle the financial and contractual details of the deal.
Barcola is also emerging as a major priority for Liverpool. The 23-year-old winger is reportedly keen to resolve his future as soon as possible and has been left out of PSG’s current squad while his situation remains uncertain. Liverpool are continuing discussions with the French champions over a potential move for the player.
The Reds are believed to be looking for additional quality and depth in the wide areas. Manager Andoni Iraola has highlighted the need for more attacking options on the flanks, making the potential arrival of Barcola and Mbaye particularly significant.
Liverpool’s need for wingers has become even more pressing following the departures of key attacking players. The club struggled at times after losing Luis Diaz last season and now face the additional challenge of replacing Mohamed Salah. Bringing in two talented wide players would therefore give Iraola considerably more attacking options.
However, completing both deals could require a substantial financial investment. Barcola and Mbaye are expected to command significant fees, meaning Liverpool will have to negotiate carefully with PSG if they want to secure both players.
There is also the possibility that both players could benefit from leaving Paris. With regular first-team opportunities potentially limited at PSG, a move to Liverpool could give them a bigger role and more consistent playing time in the Premier League.
For Liverpool, signing the pair would represent a major strengthening of the attack and could provide the squad with the depth needed to compete across multiple competitions. The club now faces a race against time to reach an agreement with PSG before the transfer window shuts.
