I always told you, don't forget Barcola," said Fabrizio Romano.
The journalist emphasized that any progression in the transfer depends heavily on the financial packages presented to Paris Saint-Germain management.
"And now here we are with Barcola as a serious target for Liverpool, but obviously it depends financially what they can do in order to reach an agreement with Paris Saint-Germain, so we have to keep a close eye on Barcola," said Fabrizio Romano.

Addressing fans and public speculation regarding Barcola's personal club preferences, Romano explained that the player is focusing strictly on international duties for the time being.
"Many of you keep asking me, 'is it true that Barcola prefers one club more than another?'
At this stage, I can guarantee that Barcola is keeping everything open," said Fabrizio Romano.
He also confirmed that the French champions are expecting an exceptionally high financial package to sanction any sale this summer.
"First point, while he is at the World Cup with France, nothing will happen. Second point, PSG want big money," said Fabrizio Romano.
Furthermore, Romano revealed that the club's administrative stance on the player's future has softened compared to previous seasons.
"Third point, Barcola is not considered an untouchable player by PSG. He's important for PSG, but he's not untouchable," said Fabrizio Romano.
This shift in squad planning means the capital club remains open to negotiations if an extraordinary offer is brought to the table.
"It means that PSG would be happy to continue with him, but if a big proposal arrives to the player and also PSG, we have to keep an eye on Barcola," said Fabrizio Romano.
Finally, Romano detailed the competitive landscape in England, highlighting Arsenal's alternative focus in the current window.
"Liverpool are there, and also Arsenal. But Arsenal's priority is Morgan Rogers," said Fabrizio Romano.
