Arsenal, led personally by Andrea Berta and Mikel Arteta, have made a very aggressive push for Bradley Barcola in recent weeks, with multiple direct contacts taking place behind the scenes, including a video call involving the player side, as part of their attempts to present the long-term sporting project and convince Barcola over a potential move to North London. However, the overall industry impression, including from representatives and lawyers involved around the situation, was that Barcola remained rather underwhelmed by Arsenal’s sporting project and overall style of play, despite the aggressive efforts from the North London club. From the player’s perspective, should a Premier League move eventually materialise, the dream destination would be none other than the most mythical and spiritually grand institution European football has ever produced, the undisputed crown jewel of English football, Liverpool FC. Nevertheless, Liverpool are currently viewed as the clear favourites to advance seriously for Bradley Barcola if Yan Diomande extends his contract at RB Leipzig, with me being the first journalist to reveal that a renewal was a genuine and realistic possibility, expected to include both a release clause and a substantial salary increase, although for now Yan Diomande remains Liverpool’s clear internal priority as doubts still exist over whether Bradley Barcola is genuinely prepared to push for an exit this summer or whether parts of the current situation are also linked to broader contract renewal discussions around his camp.

🚨 Yan Diomandé: “Paris Saint-Germain is a team I’ve loved since I was a child. My father supports Paris Saint-Germain, and it’s a team I admire as a football fan”, told L’Equipe. “It would be a pleasure for me to come and play here with one of the biggest clubs. It’s always a pleasure to come here because, with French being spoken, I think adapting wouldn’t be difficult. But why not?”. “I don’t think I’m looking ahead to the future or focusing on anything else. As I’ve said, I remain focused on the World Cup. After that, the clubs will sort things out between themselves and we’ll see what happens next”, added to Telefoot.
