Andoni Iraola responds directly when asked if Bradley Barcola will join Liverpool

Over the past 48 hours, various reliable sources confirmed that Liverpool and PSG have reached an agreement for the transfer of Bradley Barcola.

The French international has been the Reds’ primary transfer target this summer and is set to arrive at Anfield before the transfer deadline.

Barcola agreed personal terms with Liverpool a while ago but only got the green light for the transfer over the last 24 hours as the two clubs took a while to agree a fee.

He is set to arrive for his medical tomorrow, but Andoni Iraola is still remaining tight-lipped about the transfer.

After Liverpool’s 2-2 draw vs Nottingham Forest, Iraola was asked directly if the 24-year-old is joining the club, to which he gave a coy response.

“I cannot tell you anything different right now,” said the Spaniard in his post-match press conference.

“It’s true things are going on, like it’s normal we were talking about the last weeks of the window.

“I can’t wait to work with the squad post-window. We have to wait some days and work with what we have when the market closes.”

It’s never done until Barcola has signed on the dotted line, so we don’t blame the boss for erring on the side of caution.
