Arsenal are reported to be actively working toward signing Paris Saint-Germain winger Bradley Barcola and are preparing to submit an opening proposal. Multiple outlets citing The Independent and Sky Sports say the club is exploring the structure of a potential deal and is considering a formal bid as part of a wider pursuit of the 23-year-old forward.
The reports also indicate that the race involves Manchester United, with Arsenal positioned as the club attempting to move first. Arsenal’s interest is described as a leading focus in the market for a left-sided attacker, and the club is said to be testing terms before making an official offer.
No agreement between the clubs is reported, and PSG’s stance is not presented as final. The coverage suggests Barcola’s situation at PSG has been changing, with him described at times as a more backup option, which may affect availability and contract or transfer negotiations. Overall, the latest reporting points to Arsenal progressing from preliminary discussions to preparing an offer, while other major clubs monitor the same opportunity.
