Mohamed Salah’s departure as a free agent, combined with the Achilles injury to Hugo Ekitike, means that Liverpool have been tipped to go into the market for reinforcements to their forward line. Victor Munoz remains the only new addition to the Liverpool squad this summer after the Spain international arrived in a £34.5million deal from Osasuna.

The report suggests that Liverpool and PSG are prepared to remain patient regarding negotiations over a potential fee for Barcola, hinting that the transfer saga could continue throughout the remainder of the summer window.

Separate reports have indicated that PSG value Barcola at approximately €170million (£145million), especially following Morgan Rogers' move to Chelsea in a £117million deal from Aston Villa. Sandro Tonali and Elliot Anderson also sealed transfers for fees of at least £100million this summer.
