Barcola is not happening in my opinion. PSG are pricing him out of a move on purpose and will let him leave on a free in 2 years. He provides cover and rotation and is reliable while the new wingers get used to the system and tempo.
This is why they're insisting on 140m when it's public he doesn't want to stay, has only 2 years.
For me I don't think it matters because I'm not sure he's what we need anyway, regardless of actual quality.
On a different note if we are going down the loan route I happen to know that Mastantuono is available, can play anywhere across the front three but prefers right forward and wants game time.
Perhaps it's a decent stop gap until a better market opportunity arises in the right.

There's too much noise on Barcola for it not to happen in my opinion.
I'm very confident Barcola will be a Liverpool player and I think he's exactly what we need.
Pace, direct running, trickery, goals, assists, he can do it all.
I don't think people understand just how good he is, but you will when you see him in a red shirt.

Once they get Godts over the line, they'll have signed 4 wingers this summer. Keeping Barcola as well would be the type of greed even Todd Boehly would blush at.

Mastantuono has been loaned to Fiorentina, no?
10 Aug 2026 22:36:56
You said Diomande was not going to Real Madrid as he definitely wasn't the type of player they go for. In my opinion, Barcola signs and the volcano sprays fire all the way to the crown jewel of English football and its mythical cathedral.
10 Aug 2026 22:39:14
Oh, and your man Mastantuono signed on loan for Fiorentina 3 days ago.
10 Aug 2026 22:39:39
Have you seen the number of wingers PSG are signing? To me, it is a clear indication that Barcola has been sold.
10 Aug 2026 23:03:27
There was more noise about Diomande signing for Liverpool.
10 Aug 2026 23:16:13
So they're just bringing in Torres, Akliuocher and Godts for the craic then is it?
10 Aug 2026 23:28:40
Walk away. Getting treated like a small club. Eff PSG. PSG dictating, FSG trying to low ball, or STC showing he is out of his depth. Whatever the reason, I'm done with Isak mk2.

To those who correctly pointed out Mastantuono has gone on loan to Fiorentina. I am a little behind, but I knew that info about him weeks ago, so it was still correct.
Re: Diomande - I was wrong about that. It took a lot of people by surprise, because as I've said elsewhere Perez himself was not keen and has given Jose a lot of leeway that coaches normally don't get at Madrid.
The post about Barcola was just my opinion, I think he's a decent player, but he's a left forward and we need a right forward, which is why I said he's not what we need. It wasn't a comment on his ability.
Hopefully that clears things up.
Sometimes even solid info can be wrong, the only time info is 100% in football is when the player has been registered.

I can't see PSG holding on to Barcola. They'll have Doue, Dembele, Kvara, Torres, Akliouche and Godts, who can all play wide.
There's no way they hold on to a player that can land them £100m+ just to have another rotation option.
Barcola either comes to us or goes to Arsenal, but I can't see how he ends up staying in PSG.
11 Aug 2026 06:53:44
That info was about as solid as diarrhoea.

"PSG are pricing him out of a move on purpose and will let him leave on a free in 2 years."
In two years? Are you sure, Nevada? Nah, that will never happen. The kid ain't staying there, sitting behind all those other wingers that are being signed. Neither is Mbaye, which is why both are out the gaff and, ironically, coming to us should things play out the way they look.
So for me, I propose that people just relax, be patient and let the process play out. If you are impatient, that won't change anything within the process cos what will be, will be.
We (LFC) are all in on Barcola, man. Impatience/frustration will change nothing. So why bother? I don't.
