He can shoot the ball with power from long range and has got the eye to play some decisive passes on the offensive third of the field. Barcola is primarily a left-winger but can also play as a right-sided wide player or as a centre-forward if needed.<\/p>\n<p>The French talent has proven his worth as a consistent goal-scorer in Ligue 1. However, the jury is still out on whether he can cope with the physicality and high intensity of the <a href=\"https:\/\/the4thofficial.net\/category\/leagues\/english-premier-league\/\">Premier League<\/a> if the Reds manage to bring him on board this summer.<\/p>\n<p>Barcola would no doubt enhance the quality of Liverpool head coach Arne Slot\u2019s frontline. He has what it takes to help the Reds compete for a lot of major silverware over the next decade.<\/p>\n<p>At 22, Barcola has the potential to be a generational talent. Therefore, Liverpool should consider launching a move for him soon as he would be a welcome addition to Slot\u2019s match-day squad.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>In a recent report, journalist Fabrizio Romano stated that Liverpool have identified Paris Saint-Germain winger Bradley Barcola as a target.
