The Big Picture: Barcola’s Future at PSG

This summer, the PSG (a football club from Paris) has to keep an eye on what happens with Bradley Barcola.

• PSG thinks Barcola is non-transferable (they do not want to sell him).
• The French winger (a player who plays on the side of the field) has not yet decided what he wants to do.
• Barcola wears the number 29 shirt.
• He has been linked with Arsenal (a famous English club), and the “Gunners” (Arsenal’s nickname) might try again for him.
• This is because their first choice target, Morgan Rogers, looks like he is going to Chelsea instead, for a record transfer fee.

Important: PSG does not want to let Barcola go and may even offer him a new contract. But the 23-year-old player holds the decision after the World Cup.
