Arsenal unlikely to pursue Bradley Barcola before transfer window closes
Summary

Arsenal is exploring options for attacking reinforcements as the transfer window approaches its conclusion, with Paris Saint-Germain forward Bradley Barcola among the targets. However, reports indicate that Arsenal is unlikely to pursue Barcola due to PSG’s valuation of around £145 million, which the Gunners deem excessive. Barcola, who has established himself as a key player for PSG after joining from Lyon in 2023, may attract interest from Liverpool, who are currently favored to sign him. Arsenal is still assessing other attacking alternatives as they seek to strengthen their squad this summer.
