The reigning Premier League champions are reportedly looking to strengthen their attack, particularly on the left flank, with Barcola emerging as a prime target.

Silvestre backs Arsenal’s move for Barcola
Arsenal has a long and successful history of signing French superstars, and Silvestre believes Barcola would be a perfect fit for Arteta’s title-winning squad.
Speaking in association with talkSPORT Bet Online Slots, the former Gunners player told GOAL. “That would be an obvious choice for both the player and the club to go for.
“For Bradley, based on what he’s done with PSG and the national team, where he is in his career, and what Arsenal is trying to build—retaining the title and trying to win the Champions League—it’s a green light from me, 100%.”
Barcola, who was instrumental in PSG’s back-to-back Champions League victories—including their triumph over Arsenal in the 2025-26 campaign—also impressed for France at the World Cup alongside Kylian Mbappe and Michael Olise.
Despite his talent, the 23-year-old faces stiff competition for a starting spot at the French giants from players like Desire Doue, Ousmane Dembele, and Khvicha Kvaratskhelia.
With his contract at Parc des Princes running until 2028, PSG may be open to significant offers during the 2026 summer transfer window.
