Bradley Barcola and PSG respond to Liverpool interest in £100m transfer
Bradley Barcola is not interested in a move to Liverpool this summer with Paris Saint-Germain adamant he is not for sale. The 22-year-old enjoyed a sensational campaign in the French capital, helping the club finally clinch the Champions League with a wonderful return of 21 goals and 19 assists during the 2024-25 campaign. With PSG boasting perhaps the most exciting forward line in European football, Barcola was competing with Ousmane Dembele, Desire Doue and Khvicha Kvaratskhelia for a starting berth with one of that quartet usually left on the bench. Barcola was the unlucky man in the Champions League final against Inter earlier this month, still coming off the bench to grab an assist. While there has been no indication he is unhappy with the situation in Paris, reports have claimed Liverpool will look to tempt him to Merseyside in a £100million deal once they have wrapped up a deal for Florian Wirtz.

The France international is also on Bayern Munich's radar with the German champions eager to freshen up their wide options. Both clubs are set to be disappointed, however. Foot Mercato report PSG have ruled out any possibility of Barcola leaving the club this summer with the youngster considered integral to the team by head coach Luis Enrique. Barcola is also eager to remain at PSG with both parties 'sharing the desire to continue the adventure together'. While Liverpool are making a sizeable investment in bringing Wirtz to the club for what will be a record Premier League fee, their summer transfer window is unlikely to end there. More Trending Another attacking option is being considered with Luis Diaz also thought to be eager to leave to join Barcelona. Liverpool are keen on an ambitious move for Newcastle United star Alexander Isak, who Newcastle United value at over £150million. Arsenal have already thrown in the towel in their pursuit of the Swede with that price tag surely placing him out of Liverpool's reach too. Darwin Nunez is available for transfer and expected to leave, while Liverpool will also consider bids for Diogo Jota.

How ‘frightening' Liverpool may have found Mo Salah replacement and who gets Viktor Gyokeres
Click to share on X/Twitter (Opens in new window) Click to share on Facebook (Opens in new window) LIVERPOOL are set to splash over £300million this summer and could become unstoppable. SunSport exclusively revealed that Bradley Barcola is on Liverpool's radar in a blockbuster move. Sign up for Scottish Sun newsletter Sign up 7 Bradley Barcola could be heading to Anfield this summer Credit: Getty 7 Barcola could be Mo Salah's long-term replacement Credit: AFP While Viktor Gyokeres' rumoured strike and Jack Grealish's uncertain future have also hit the back pages. Our very own Will Pugh and Dean Scoggins share their thoughts on all the deals and speculation in The Sun's new show Transfers Exposed. 'Be afraid of Liverpool' The Reds are prepared to battle Bayern Munich for the £100m-rated winger Barcola, 22. Liverpool have also not given up on signing Alexander Isak from Newcastle - though if the Toon stick to their £150m price tag - Barcola will be the alternative. READ MORE IN FOOTBALL EK OF A PLAYER Man Utd 'make contact over Ekitike as they rival Chelsea for £85m transfer' And if you're looking for a long-term replacement for Mo Salah, not this season necessarily, Barcola could be the guy. Desire Doue, Ousmane Dembele and Khvicha Kvaratskhelia are PSG's first choice front three. It means Barcola could want out - especially with a World Cup on the horizon. Arne Slot is building a versatile group of attackers that can play anywhere along the front in Salah, £126m man Florian Wirtz, Cody Gakpo and Luis Diaz. BEST ONLINE CASINOS - TOP SITES IN THE UK And even though Salah signed a new contact, Saudi talks will never be far away from being on the backpage once again. A statement summer from Liverpool is coming with Jeremie Frimpong and Milos Kerkez expected to be their new flying full-backs. 7 Gyok to go Sporting's president Frederico Varandas has furiously hit back at Victor Gyokeres saying: "Threats and blackmail don't work." Reports from Lisbon claim the Swedish striker is considering going on strike to force an exit. Gyokeres, 27, is furious with Sporting for going back on their word over a transfer promise to him. He believes he had a gentleman's agreement to leave for £50million with a further £8million in add-ons. That claim has been rubbished by Varandas and good on Sporting for standing firm with their price. They know a sale is coming but will not be bullied into cashing-in on the cheap. Gyokeres will likely have the choice between Man Utd and Arsenal. And there should not be concern about Gyokeres' fit for the Premier League should it be a move to Old Trafford or the Emirates. 7 Viktor Gyokeres is considering going on strike to leave Sporting Credit: Getty Ruben Amorim believes he can produce one touch finishes and be a big enough physical presence in leading the line - they did effectively together at Sporting. As for Arsenal, they just need someone with a proven track record of putting the ball in the back of the net. 97 goals in 102 Sporting games suggests Gyokeres can do that. If the Gunners can add a top-quality left-winger to their squad as well, a move to North London would be the smarter choice over the circus in Manchester. Gyokeres deserves a Premier League chance. But don't expect Erling Haaland numbers straight away. The Greal Deal A changing of the guard is happening at Man City after the signings of Rayan Cherki, Rayan Ait-Nouri and Tijjani Reijnders. Cherki, 21, will get fans off their seats and the ex-Lyon man will be the wildcard Pep Guardiola has been missing. 7 Jack Grealish's days at City are numbered Credit: Getty City became a bit predictable last season, but trickster Cherki can do anything with the ball at his feet from rainbow flicks over defender's heads to goals from anywhere with either feet. Let's hope Pep does not take the creativity and excitement out his game like he has done to Grealish, who will leave after being left out their Club World Cup squad. Newcastle, Aston Villa, Tottenham and Napoli have all been linked with a move for him in the region of £40m-£50m. And the Toon should go all out to bring the 29-year-old to St James' Park. 7 They will have dreams of winning the Europa League and could do with another wide man to compete with Anthony Gordon, Harvey Barnes and Jacob Murphy, while Grealish could also play just behind Isak as a No10. Newcastle have the money, their fans love a maverick and Eddie Howe is the type of boss to get the best out of him. 7 TRANSFER NEWS LIVE - KEEP UP WITH ALL THE LATEST FROM A BUSY SUMMER WINDOW
