Bradley Barcola has informed Paris Saint-Germain that he will not sign a new contract this summer, clearing the path for a major departure despite being under contract through 2031. Liverpool are understood to be the forward's priority destination and are actively working on a deal, with PSG demanding a fee in the region of £140 million. Arsenal have also scouted the player this summer and hold long-standing interest.
PSG, who opened a squad space after selling Lee Kang-in to Atletico Madrid, have turned their attention to RB Leipzig winger Yan Diomande as a replacement. Real Madrid have separately agreed personal terms with Diomande, while also placing a £137 million asking price on Vinicius Junior, whom Arsenal have offered a record-breaking contract. Vinicius's priority, however, remains a new Madrid deal.
Elsewhere, Arsenal are accelerating talks for Bruno Guimaraes, who wants his future resolved before returning to Newcastle. Juventus are pursuing Manchester United's Joshua Zirkzee, while Besiktas await a final decision from Mohamed Salah on their offer.
