Barcola is a player I’ve touted for a long time as he was in Ligue 1 Team of the Year 2025, with 14 goals and 10 assists in 34 games, and broke the record for the most games by a player in Ligue 1 with 64 games in that season.
My honest opinion, though, is that he’s not yet a star or a game changer, like Doué, Demebele and Kvaratskhelia who overshadowed him at PSG, and he can disappear in some games, like in the World Cup. And at times he seems to lack a bit of confidence.
BUT that doesn’t matter really, as he now has the chance at Liverpool to become the best winger in the league, and even the top scorer like how both Mo Salah and Sadio Mané did.
Does he have the mentality to take up his game up to another level, truly excel and deliver the biggest trophies for Liverpool?
I certainly hope so.
