It’s the story of a crazy rise. After six months of excellent performances at Lyon, Bradley Barcola joined Paris Saint-Germain last summer for 45 million euros. A high sum for a young prospect but which today seems totally justified. Indeed, the 21-year-old winger has reached the top at high speed under the leadership of Luis Enrique. Having become indispensable to PSG, he was even called up for the first time to the French team this summer to play in the Euro. As if it were obvious.
Following on from last season, Bradley Barcola has started this new 2023-2024 season with a bang. Already the scorer of three goals in two matches, the former Lyon player is making Parisian supporters forget Kylian Mbappé. Present in Monaco on Thursday to watch, Nasser Al-Khelaïfi said all the good things he thought of his French international.
Al-Khelaïfi on Barcola: “It’s only just beginning”
“Barcola is a magnificent player. He has talent, he is fast, he has everything. More importantly, as a person, he is one of the most professional here. Even if all our players are professional. He really has something special. I am very happy for him.”confided the PSG boss.
Before sending a strong message to his young player: ” It’s just the beginning. He needs to work, he’s not there yet. He still has a lot of work to do with the coach, that’s the most important thing. Work and play for the team.”
