Arsenal are reportedly making moves to sign PSG winger Bradley Barcola this summer, with an offer being prepared for the 23-year-old French international.
The talented attacker, currently on international duty with France for the World Cup, is said to be seeking more regular game time after a season with limited opportunities at PSG. This pursuit comes as Arsenal manager Mikel Arteta looks to bolster his attacking options, with Barcola being a key target alongside other potential signings like Julian Alvarez and Morgan Rogers.
However, Arsenal won't have a clear run at the player. Liverpool is also reportedly interested in Barcola, setting up a potential bidding war between the two Premier League giants. Both clubs see the young Frenchman as an exciting long-term prospect who could bring significant pace, flair, and goal-scoring ability to their squads.
Despite his inconsistent playing time at PSG, Barcola managed an impressive 20 goal contributions last season and recently scored a standout goal for France. His technical skills appear well-suited for the Premier League, and a move to England could offer him the consistent playing time he desires at a high level, with both Arsenal and Liverpool capable of providing that platform.
It's still uncertain if PSG will agree to let Barcola depart, especially given his youth and potential for further development. His future could see him become a star for either Arsenal or Liverpool, with the latter potentially looking to strengthen their wing options following speculation around Mohamed Salah's potential exit and Cody Gakpo's future.
