Bayern Munich are in the race for Bradley Barcola along with Liverpool and Manchester United, with PSG unlikely to cave in to the pressure.
According to Fichajes, Bradley Barcola has a few key suitors in the market ahead of the January transfer window should he become available. Bayern Munich are the latest to show an interest in the French winger, with Manchester United and Liverpool also big admirers of the attacker.
PSG built their foundation of last season’s treble winning campaign on the fluidity of their players. Luis Enrique was able to bring about the versatile qualities of his attacker to the fore, with the front three in particular able to switch positions in the game to cause havoc to the opposition.
Bradley Barcola has been a key part of that equation, and while the Frenchman is not seen as a bona fide starter of sorts, Enrique holds him in great importance in his plans. PSG are somewhat under pressure from some of the top clubs around, who are ready to offer the winger a key role in their teams.
Manchester United are interested in the winger, as the Premier League giants are looking into the market for a marquee signing opportunity. They would be in a position to make a huge investment should a player like Barcola, who has contributed to ten goals this season, become available in January.
Liverpool are also looking at Bradley Barcola as a potential replacement for Mohamed Salah in January, especially with the Egyptian’s time at the club called into question. However, those two Premier League giants have a new competitor in Bayern Munich, as the Bundesliga champions eye Barcola as a potential key signing in the January window.
Bayern Munich are keen, but will PSG sell?
Bayern Munich could offer Bradley Barcola a key role in the side as they continue to make transitions in the team. Serge Gnabry’s future remains a doubt, while there is chatter about Michael Olise leaving for a return to the Premier League. Barcola could represent a big coup for the Bavarians in their effort to refresh their attacking setup, although they face a huge hurdle ahead in the race for the PSG star.
PSG are under no pressure to sell, and they are not expected to entertain offers in January for the players deemed very important by Enrique. Barcola falls into that category of stars, meaning the Parisians are unlikely to sell next month despite the ongoing pressure in the market. They might study the winger’s situation next summer, but for now, there is no chance Barcola leaves in January.
