Liverpool are preparing an opening offer for Paris Saint-Germain forward Bradley Barcola after positive talks with his representatives. The 23-year-old France international is open to a Premier League move and has reportedly turned down a contract extension at PSG, where he has fallen down the pecking order. PSG values Barcola at approximately £145 million, which would be a British record transfer fee. Liverpool are looking to add a proven winger to manager Andoni Iraola's squad before the new season, having previously targeted Yan Diomande, who is now likely to join Real Madrid. Liverpool have already signed Víctor Muñoz from Osasuna and Jérémy Jacquet from Rennes this summer but seek further attacking and defensive reinforcements.
