Additionally, recent speculations have suggested that Arsenal are closely monitoring Barcola’s situation at PSG and are willing to make a move for him in the transfer window.
With the speculations of Bradley Barcola making a move going rife, PSG manager, Luis Enrique recently quashed his transfer rumours. Speaking at a recent interview ahead of the quarter-final against Bayern Munich, Luis Enrique made his thoughts clear and stated, “I have no doubt he'll remain our player”. Further in the interview, when he was asked about the interest over Barcola from other clubs, he remarked, “We like the fact that our players are interesting to other clubs.
