Barcola EXIT: Is Liverpool FC the Destination?

Liverpool's pursuit of Bradley Barcola is gathering serious momentum — and the latest developments from Paris have only added fuel to the fire. On today's Newsround with Dave Davis, Dave breaks down a fascinating night surrounding Liverpool's top attacking target after Barcola was handed zero minutes in PSG's Super Cup clash, with fellow Reds target Ibrahim Mbaye also remaining unused. Their post-match reactions and involvement in the celebrations have inevitably sparked further speculation over their futures. More importantly, PSG president Nasser Al-Khelaifi has refused to rule out Barcola leaving, while Fabrizio Romano reports that Liverpool and PSG are talking and that a deal remains possible. Dave assesses what the latest comments really mean, why Barcola no longer appears untouchable and whether PSG's incoming attacking business could finally trigger the transfer dominoes Liverpool have been waiting for. Could Liverpool even attempt an extraordinary move for both Barcola and Mbaye, and just how significant could the numbers become if the Reds raid Paris for two of their brightest attacking talents? There's also a major boost from the training ground, with Ronald Araujo, Jeremy Jacquet and Alexis Mac Allister back involved, as Liverpool prepare for their final meaningful pre-season test against Como. Dave looks at whether Jacquet could possibly be ready for the competitive opener against Newcastle and assesses the players still working their way back to fitness. With the new season almost here and Liverpool's transfer talks accelerating, are the pieces finally falling into place for another blockbuster move? Learn more about your ad choices.
