France winger Bradley Barcola has become Liverpool’s second-most expensive signing after completing his move from Paris Saint-Germain on Monday.
A source close to PSG told Agence France-Presse (AFP) that Liverpool will pay 107 million pounds ($145 million) for the 23-year-old, with a further 20 million euros in easily achievable bonuses.
The total deal, worth up to 124 million pounds, is second only to the 125 million pounds Liverpool paid Newcastle for Sweden striker Alexander Isak.
Barcola’s transfer fee is the highest ever paid for a player from Ligue 1. It is also the 10th transfer worth at least 100 million pounds in Premier League history and the fourth such deal completed this summer.
The 23-year-old is the third forward costing more than 100 million pounds that Liverpool have signed in two years.
