Liverpool's pursuit of PSG star Bradley Barcola this summer has been complicated by ChelseaLiverpool's hunt for a Mohamed Salah successor appears to have led them to the door of French attacker, Bradley Barcola. The winger, who impressed at this summer's World Cup, will not come cheap, however, with Chelsea inadvertently causing the Reds a major headache.The 23-year-old's club, Paris Saint-Germain, are reportedly demanding that any of Barcola's potential suitors cough up a stunning £145 million for his services.

Their reasoning for such a steep fee is in response to the astonishing amounts Chelsea paid for Aston Villa's Morgan Rogers and Manchester City dished out for Nottingham Forest's Elliot Anderson this summer.According to French outlet Mercato, Barcola has indicated he wants to leave the reigning European champions. The French publication adds that talks between Barcola and PSG over a new deal have now ceased, and there are no further discussions between the two parties.PSG's price for Barcola would make him the third most expensive transfer in history.

Speaking at his first press conference as Liverpool’s new head coach, Iraola admitted that his side needed more players.He said: "Obviously we've signed two players already but we need more players – we know this. He has already won two Champions Leagues, and he could even win the World Cup over the next few weeks, his achievements for such a young player are staggering."He has enormous potential, and I'm not surprised Liverpool are looking at him.
