Julian Alvarez transfer: Arsenal eye PSG’s Bradley Barcola as backup option

The transfer window is set to be lively again this summer. The Julian Alvarez case is stirring up the market. The Argentine international has made it clear he wants to leave Atlético de Madrid following Argentina’s victory over Austria at the 2026 World Cup. The 26-year-old reportedly has plenty of options for his future, with FC Barcelona and Arsenal among the clubs mentioned as potential destinations.

Bradley Barcola, plan B d’Arsenal pour Julian Alvarez ?

However, a move for Julian Alvarez to Arsenal is seen as unlikely. The Gunners are therefore looking at other options in the market. One profile under consideration is Bradley Barcola. The French international, who is also playing at the 2026 World Cup with France, appeals to the Premier League club. The London hierarchy is keeping an eye on this case.

Bradley Barcola n’exclut pas un départ du PSG ?

It must be said that Bradley Barcola is not ruling out any options for his future. Although he is an important player for Luis Enrique at PSG, the 23-year-old winger is not an undisputed starter due to competition from Khvicha Kvaratskhelia, Ousmane Dembélé and Désiré Doué. The French international is also aware of interest from Liverpool in the transfer window and has not dismissed the possibility. Arsenal could therefore join the race for his signing. Bradley Barcola is seen as a backup plan for the English champions if a move for Julian Alvarez proves impossible this summer. Stay tuned…
