Both Liverpool and Bayern are believed to be interested in signing a left winger this summer, with Barcola topping their shortlists. The Reds are intent on making the summer transfer window count by adding Barcola to their ranks in a blockbuster move. With Luis Diaz reportedly determined to make a switch to Barcelona, Arne Slot's side want to ensure they have enough quality next season to fight on all fronts.
As for Bayern, the departure of Leroy Sane to Galatasaray has been confirmed while futures of Kingsley Coman and Serge Gnabry remain up in the air. As such, the Bavarians want to add a top left winger to provide balance to an attack which consists of Harry Kane, Michael Olise and Jamal Musiala. In addition to Barcola, they are also keeping tabs on Athletic Club's Nico Williams.

However, in the biggest games of the season, head coach Luis Enrique preferred a front three of Ousmane Dembele, Khvicha Kvaratskhelia and Desire Doue, leaving Barcola behind in the pecking order. Despite losing his place as a starter, PSG believe that the 22-year-old Frenchman is not for sale under any circumstances, at least not this summer. What's more, Barcola is also adamant on continuing in Paris and is ready to fight for his place at Parc des Princes.
