Liverpool are reportedly confident of landing Paris Saint-Germain winger Bradley Barcola ahead of Arsenal this summer.
The Reds were initially keen on landing Yan Diomande from RB Leipzig to bolster the right wing, but he has verbally agreed terms over a future move to PSG.
As a result, they have shifted their focus to landing Barcola, and they are far down the line in discussions with his agents compared to the Gunners, as per The Sun.
Arsenal recently suffered a setback as Morgan Rogers snubbed them for Chelsea, and it has been reported that Barcola is the fallback target for the hierarchy.
However, Liverpool are currently in the driving seat for the Frenchman's services and could sign him as soon as PSG secure the signing of Diomande.
Barcola is primarily a left-sided winger but he is comfortable from the right too. The Reds see him as a successor to Mohamed Salah, who left on a free transfer.
