PSG winger Bradley Barcola has been a Liverpool target all summer
Liverpool have an agreement in principle with Paris Saint-Germain to sign Bradley Barcola for a package worth £120m.
The deal has not been finalised, with last details still being discussed, but there has been a breakthrough in negotiations.
There had been a gap in valuation between the two clubs throughout the summer, with PSG previously asking for around £145m for the France international.
The final detail of the proposed deal is still to be agreed but the £120m fee is understood to now be fixed in place as the value Liverpool will be paying for the 23-year-old.
Should Liverpool get this deal over the line before the deadline, it would allow Cody Gakpo to leave Anfield, with Tottenham and Manchester City both interested in the Dutchman.
Liverpool are also trying to sign a second new winger, with their target currently Crystal Palace’s Ismaila Sarr following difficult negotiations with Brighton for Yankuba Minteh.
Liverpool’s search for a second winger
Liverpool have approached Palace over a potential deal for Sarr.
Andoni Iraola’s side are considering their options after talks stalled with Brighton over Minteh. Brighton are holding out for £80m after rejecting two bids from Liverpool, the latest worth £60m.
Meanwhile, Palace have no intention of letting Sarr go at this stage and consider the 28-year-old to be not for sale. He has three years left on his contract.
Sarr missed Palace’s opening weekend defeat at Everton. Reports claimed he was refusing to train but it is understood that the winger is currently injured.
