Transfer: Barcola Cannot Replace Salah at Liverpool

Jamie Carragher said Liverpool need a right winger as the club weighs a move for Bradley Barcola, leaving the left side crowded.

  • On Wednesday, reports emerged that Liverpool are readying a bid for Paris Saint-Germain forward Bradley Barcola to fill the void left by Mohamed Salah, who departed Anfield this summer after nine years.
  • Paris Saint-Germain reportedly values the France international at around £140 million, though Liverpool chiefs are confident they can negotiate a deal closer to £100 million for the 23-year-old.
  • Liverpool legend Jamie Carragher criticized the pursuit, arguing the Reds lack a right-winger; "no one who plays from the right," Carragher posted on X.
  • Manager Andoni Iraola deployed 17-year-old Rio Ngumoha on the right flank during Wednesday's 1-0 victory over Wrexham, where the youngster stated he tries to "beat my man" regardless of position.
  • Arsenal are also monitoring Barcola, with pundit Paul Merson writing: "If Arsenal don't get Vinicius, then they have to get Bradley Barcola," especially after Leandro Trossard's departure.
