​Liverpool targets both excluded from squadLiverpool Transfer Interest in Bradley Barcola and Ibrahim Mbaye Grows After PSG Squad OmissionLiverpool’s search for extra firepower before the summer transfer window closes appears to have taken another notable turn, with Paris Saint-Germain forwards Bradley Barcola and Ibrahim Mbaye left out of the squad for the Trophée des Champions clash against Lens.According to GFFN, both attackers are on Liverpool’s radar as the club explores ways to strengthen its forward line. The report states that the Merseyside club have been in active discussions with the Ligue 1 champions over possible moves for the pair, although no agreement has yet been reached.PSG squad omission sparks Liverpool transfer talkBarcola, 23, and Mbaye, 18, are two very different profiles, yet both fit the modern recruitment model of targeting attacking talent with high ceilings.
