The transfer window is moving at full speed now, with big deals being done every day.

There’s one white whale still out there though, one big domino that everyone’s waiting to see fall.

Bradley Barcola has made it very clear that he wants to leave PSG this summer, and so far it’s been Liverpool leading the chase. His asking price is a monster €150m, and while the Reds won’t want to pay all that, it’s not so high it’s put them off engaging with PSG over a deal.

Arsenal could cost Liverpool big time in Barcola chase

Liverpool have been locked in talks over Barcola for weeks, if you believe the likes of Fabrizio Romano. No other team has seemed interested, perhaps knowing they can’t reach the price tag PSG have set.

But recent days have seen reports of Arsenal joining the chase. Today, an exclusive from TeamTalk says that the Gunners have “made contact” with the 23 year old’s camp as they consider joining the chase.

Whether or not Arsenal get really serious, it’s likely to cost Liverpool. The Reds will have been working on chipping away at PSG’s demands – the entry of another super club into the mix only strengthens the Parisians’ bargaining position.

Are Liverpool willing to break the British transfer record twice in two years? Are Arsenal ready to outspend them to try and go to the next level? It’s going to be a very interesting few weeks to come, and potentially some very lucrative ones for PSG.
