While personal terms are not expected to pose a major hurdle, Liverpool must still bridge the valuation gap with PSG.<\/p>\n

As per some reports, the Reds have already made a bid worth \u20ac120m.<\/p>\n

The French champions maintain a strong negotiating position and will only sanction Barcola\u2019s departure if an extraordinary financial package is presented.<\/p>\n

Liverpool face difficult negotiations with PSG<\/h2>\n

Although Barcola is said to be open to a move to Anfield, convincing PSG is likely to prove the biggest obstacle.<\/p>\n

The French club regard the 23-year-old as one of their most valuable attacking players and are expected to demand a premium fee before entertaining negotiations.<\/p>\n

Liverpool therefore face the challenge of deciding whether to meet PSG\u2019s valuation or continue negotiating in an attempt to lower the asking price.<\/p>\n

With time remaining in the transfer window, discussions between the clubs are expected to continue.<\/p>\n

Liverpool hold an advantage in the race<\/h2>\n

Liverpool are not the only club to have shown interest in Barcola, with Arsenal also linked with the France international in recent weeks.<\/p>\n

However, reports suggest the winger\u2019s preference is to join Liverpool should he leave Paris this summer.<\/p>\n

That stance could strengthen Liverpool\u2019s position if formal club-to-club negotiations gather momentum, although the Reds will still need to convince PSG to sanction the transfer.<\/p>\n

For now, talks remain ongoing, but there is no agreement in place between Liverpool and PSG, meaning the deal is still some way from being completed.<\/p>\n
