The Sun of England said on the 12th (Korea time) "Liverpool is aiming to recruit PSG's Barcola."With this, the transfer market expenditure is expected to exceed 300 million pounds (about 557 billion won) this summer," he said.
Liverpool, the champion of the English Premier League (EPL) in the 2024-2025 season, will spend 127 million pounds (about 235 billion won), a new record for British football transfer fees, by recruiting Florian Birz of Bayer Leverkusen in the German Bundesliga, but plans to spend a lot of money on strengthening offensive resources afterwards.
Liverpool are said to be ready to compete with Bayern Munich for the 22-year-old winger Barcola. Barcola's transfer fee is estimated at 100 million pounds (about 185 billion won).
Liverpool will release Darwin Núñez, who has shown up-and-down performances to finance the transfer, and is also considering selling Luis Díaz and Diogo Jota.
Liverpool is said to have not given up hope for Newcastle's recruitment of Alexander Isaac.
Isaac is a striker who has gained worldwide attention for his explosive performance last season. Liverpool want Isaac at the heart of the revamped offensive. The problem is the astronomical transfer fee.
If Newcastle demand 150 million pounds (about 278 billion won) from Isaac, Liverpool plans to withdraw the recruitment and find new alternatives.

Barcola, whose future at PSG, the winner of the UEFA Champions League, is uncertain, is rapidly emerging as Liverpool's plan B.
Liverpool has already hired defender Jeremy Frimpong, a former Leverkusen teammate of Birz, for £29.5 million (about KRW 54.7 billion), and has set aside more than £40 million (about KRW 74 billion) for Bournemouth's left-side defender Miloš Kerquez.
Expectations for defenders are also high, but what fans want the most is the offense. We are looking forward to seeing Birz, Mohamed Salah and Barcola form a combination in the offensive camp.
Barcola is currently not included in PSG's main offensive triangle squad.
He also started on the bench in the UEFA Champions League final against Inter Milan last month and was substituted in the 67th minute. Seni Mayulu's last goal was assisted, but it remains regrettable that he did not start. The game was a 5-0 victory for PSG. If there was not much difference in score, he might not have been able to participate.
Liverpool's biggest competitor is Bayern Munich. Munich has Barcola as its top target. PSG acquired Barcola for 38 million pounds (about 70 billion won) from Ligue 1 Lyon in 2023. If it can be sold for £100 million, it means selling Barcola for more than double the value.
