Liverpool is reportedly closing in on a major transfer target, as Bradley Barcola has allegedly expressed a preference to join the Premier League club.
The 23-year-old midfielder has been linked with a move away from Paris Saint-Germain this summer, and a recent report claims that he has given his preference towards joining Liverpool.
Barcola was not a guaranteed starter for PSG last season, and he needs more gametime in order to fulfill his potential.
He is at a stage in his career where he needs to start every week, and sitting on the bench at PSG will not benefit him.
Liverpool, on the other hand, is hoping to secure his signature, and the fact that he prefers to join them will come as a huge boost for the Premier League club.
The Reds need more quality on the flanks, especially after the departure of Mohammed Salah, and Barcola is a left-sided attacker who could add a new dimension to the Liverpool attack.
He has the technical attributes to succeed in the Premier League, and he could add some much-needed ingenuity in the final third.
Liverpool has also signed Victor Munoz from Osasuna, who will add more pace and unpredictability going forward.
However, it remains to be seen if Liverpool can agree on a deal with PSG in the coming weeks, as Barcola is likely to cost a lot of money, especially given the current state of the transfer market.
Barcola has a impressive record, having scored 39 goals and recorded 37 assists in 152 matches for PSG.
