Liverpool reaches $166 million deal for Bradley Barcola from PSG

Liverpool has reached an agreement to sign Paris Saint-Germain forward Bradley Barcola in a deal valued at 123 million pounds ($166 million), a person with knowledge of the transaction confirmed to The Associated Press on Saturday. The person spoke on condition of anonymity as the details have not been made public. Neither Liverpool nor PSG have provided official comments on the transfer. The deal includes an initial payment of 106 million pounds ($143 million) with an additional 17 million pounds ($23 million) in potential add-ons. Barcola, 23, who has won two consecutive Champions League titles with PSG, is expected to undergo a medical examination. The transfer window closes on Tuesday. This follows Liverpool's significant spending last summer, which included 125 million pounds for Alexander Isak and 116 million pounds for Florian Wirtz. If the signing is completed, Barcola will look to bolster a Liverpool side that has drawn its first two Premier League matches 2-2 against Newcastle and Nottingham Forest.
