The teenage winger is primed for a breakout campaign if his path is not blocked.

Liverpool's transfer window has sparked into life as the club's interest in Bradley Barcola starts to materialise and a club chief speaks out

Reports in France suggest Liverpool may need to show extreme patience to land Barcola, with PSG prepared to block the move for now, though sources can deliver two big reasons for optimism

An eye-watering £145m (€170m) asking price has been reported in some quarters, but Andoni Iraola’s Reds do not intend on going that high for the winger.

John: Truly flabbergasted at his price. Not denying his quality and potential but when you hear Vinicius Jr is valued at £137m you have to give your head a scratch. Lee: He's proved his worth. A big signing for the new manager makes sense, get the season started with a buzz. Realistically we still need to look at the back four conundrum though.
