Liverpool are on the verge of completing a deal to sign Bradley Barcola worth a total of £123m, with the forward finally allowed to join the Reds. Liverpool left a deal to sign Alexander Isak until the last moment last summer as well, but the two most expensive signings in Reds’ history will soon play together.

In a report for The Athletic, David Ornstein has confirmed the finer details of Liverpool’s deal to sign Barcola, stating that the 23-year-old will undergo a medical in the next 24 hrs. Ornstein writes: “Liverpool have finalised an agreement to sign Bradley Barcola from Paris Saint-Germain.

“A breakthrough in negotiations — helmed by sporting director Richard Hughes, Liverpool CEO Billy Hogan and Fenway Sports Group president Mike Gordon for Liverpool and Nasser Al-Khelaifi for PSG — came after the Merseyside club held key talks on Tuesday to bring clarity over the proposed transfer.” Isak will be the biggest beneficiary of Barcola’s move to Liverpool Barcola will score a lot of goals on his own, but Isak will be the player most likely to improve with the Frenchman’s arrival. Michael first started supporting Liverpool after Istanbul in 2006.
