A fresh report has revealed Liverpool<\/a>\u2019s first bid for PSG attacker Bradley Barcola is on the way, and it will break the club\u2019s transfer record.<\/p>\n

Barcola is Liverpool\u2019s undisputed top target to replace club legend Mohamed Salah, with new Reds boss Andoni Iraola viewing the France star as a genuine world-class player who will improve the club\u2019s starting XI.<\/p>\n

Reports that Liverpool<\/a> have an agreement on personal terms in place with Barcola<\/a> were actually debunked by four respected journalists on Tuesday<\/a>.<\/p>\n

However, all four of those reporters \u2013 Fabrizio Romano, Loic Tanzi, Fabrice Hawkins and Graeme Bailey \u2013 confirmed Barcola has signalled his intention to sign on the dotted line at Anfield and chosen Iraola\u2019s men over other top suitors, including Premier League champions Arsenal.<\/p>\n

To that end, while personal terms are not yet agreed, it\u2019s thought that Liverpool will not have any issues in that regard.<\/p>\n

The second major part of this potentially record-breaking deal centres on the enormous transfer fee involved for Barcola.<\/p>\n

PSG value the attacker at a whopping \u20ac170m (\u00a3145m) on the back of an impressive World Cup campaign and two stellar seasons with the Ligue 1 side in which he helped the club win back-to-back Champions League titles.<\/p>\n

A report from our friends over at TEAMtalk on Tuesday revealed that PSG now willing to sell Barcola on the back of the winger making it crystal clear he won\u2019t pen fresh terms.<\/p>\n

Liverpool to go BIG with opening Barcola offer<\/p>\n

And now a fresh update from Liverpool reporter, DaveOCKop, has revealed that size of Liverpool\u2019s opening bid for Barcola.<\/p>\n

Taking to X<\/a>, he stated: \u201cEXCL: Liverpool are preparing a bid of \u20ac110m plus a potential approx. \u20ac40m in add-ons for Bradley Barcola.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe bonuses are set to be structured around the Premier League and Champions League. Barcola is keen on a move to Liverpool.\u201d<\/p>\n

At current exchange rate, a package totalling \u20ac150m equates to \u00a3128.5m, which would mean Barcola becoming Liverpool\u2019s record signing \u2013 if PSG agree to that figure, of course.<\/p>\n

Providing further context on the upcoming bid via his\u00a0website<\/a>, DaveOCKop added: \u201cLiverpool is set to submit a huge proposal to Paris Saint-Germain worth a staggering \u20ac110 million (\u00a394 million) upfront.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe structure of the deal also includes performance-based bonuses, with an additional \u20ac20 million tied to domestic league success and a further \u20ac20 million linked to Champions League achievements.<\/p>\n

\u201cThis would take the total potential value of the deal to \u20ac150 million.<\/p>\n

\u201cOf course, that will still fall short of the widely reported valuation of \u20ac170m, with \u20ac40m not guaranteed for Luis Enrique\u2019s side.\u201d<\/p>\n
