SPORTS.YAHOO.COMVincius Jr’s ‘problem’ at Real Madrid could benefit Arsenal’s pursuitVincius Jrs problem at Real Madrid could benefit Arsenals pursuitArsenals ambitious pursuit of Vincius Jr has received another intriguing twist after respected South American football expert Tim Vickery suggested the Brazilians situation at Real Madrid is being complicated by the arrival of Kylian Mbapp.As reported by Sky Sports, Vickery explained that the issue goes beyond two global superstars competing for the spotlight, insisting there is also a fundamental tactical clash between the pair.Without a doubt, yes very much so. Its not only a battle of egos, its not only a battle to be number one, its also the fact that tactically they like the same space.Vickery added that while Vincius is traditionally viewed as a winger and Mbapp as a centre-forward, both naturally drift into similar areas of the pitch, making it difficult for either player to perform at their best.Its very hard to fit the two of them in the same side. Ancelotti couldnt do it and Ancelotti is a master at adapting and getting the best out of what hes got. The Mbapp thing is undoubtedly a problem for Vincius Jr.Arsenal continue to monitor the situationThose comments come at an interesting time, with Arsenal continuing to be linked with what would undoubtedly be the biggest signing in the clubs history.Reports suggest that there remains a gap between the Real Madrids proposal and the demands of Vinicius Jrs representatives.Meanwhile, several Spanish reports have claimed Arsenal remain firmly interested in the 26-year-old, while Real Madrid are said to value him at around 150 million should they eventually decide to sell.(Photo by Wagner Meier/Getty Images)More than just a contract dispute?Until now, much of the discussion surrounding Vincius future has centred on his contract negotiations.However, Vickerys assessment introduces another possible factor. If Real Madrid are genuinely struggling to accommodate both Vincius and Mbapp in the same team, it could help explain why speculation surrounding the Brazilian refuses to disappear despite his importance to the Spanish giants.That does not mean a transfer is imminent, of course. Vincius remains one of the worlds elite forwards and Real Madrid would undoubtedly prefer to tie him down to a new long-term contract.But if negotiations continue to stall while tactical questions remain unanswered, Arsenal will no doubt continue to monitor developments very closely.For now, the Gunners can do little more than wait, but every fresh update suggests this story still has some way to run.Do you think Arsenal genuinely have a chance of signing Vincius Jr this summer, or will Real Madrid eventually resolve both the contract situation and the tactical puzzle?

SPORTS.YAHOO.COMHere we go, Liverpool enter fresh talks to sign amazing defenderHere we go, Liverpool enter fresh talks to sign amazing defenderLiverpool have entered talks to sign an amazing defender. This is starting to become a bit of an embarrassing window for Richard Hughes and we are teetering on a territory where Andoni Iraola is being set-up to fail.We all knew the squad the Spaniard inherited at Anfield wasn't great but we also knew that the summer would give Hughes an opportunity to fix that for his former and now current colleague.What has transpired has been gob smacking to say the least. Liverpool have seemingly spent the entire window trying to pursue a move for Bradley Barcola and Yan Diomande - the latter has rejected them and the former PSG are holding out for a big fee so bartering is continuing with the Reds.All the while, though, Hughes has ignored the glaring issues elsewhere within the current squad. Liverpool are just over two weeks away from their first game of the season in the Premier League, and their depth is looking very thin.Defence is one of the biggest weakspots. Right now Jeremy Jacquet and Joe Gomez are both nursing an injury. Giovanni Leoni is still coming back from the serious ACL injury he suffered last season. Conor Bradley is also out injured for at least a couple of months.So, it's just Virgil van Dijk, who is actually available from Liverpool's current senior options. Ifeanyi Ndukwe, who has played most of the pre-season games could be a contender to start alongside him.However, he doesn't have the work-permit requirements to stay at Liverpool next season so he will actually have to be sent out on loan.That leaves just Mor Talla Ndiaye and Luke Chambers, both of whom are more confided on the left-side of the defence.Sure, Jacquet might be back soon and Gomez is only a few weeks away. Leoni will also be back in training. However, the reality is that Liverpool cannot rely on this depth going into the season.Gomez is very injury prone. He should be discounted as an option to begin with. Which then leaves Liverpool with just three centre-back options, Jacquet, Leoni, and Van Dijk. The former two have not played a single minute in the Premier League and both of them are coming back from injuries.On top of that you have a Bradley at right-back who has missed 20+ games due to injury in all three of his campaigns for Liverpool's first-team.So, Liverpool probably need a right-back in all fairness as well because Jeremie Frimpong cannot be trusted in that role.Well who could they go for though?At this late on in the window Liverpool are going to have to scramble for options. The reality is that the club is probably 3-4 signings away from being able to compete for the top four.Hughes is not going to get all of those deals done in time. There's just no way.But at least he is working towards getting something done.That is if DaveOCKOP's report is to be believed. The reliable Liverpool fansite claims that Liverpool have held fresh talks to sign Paris Saint Germain defender Ilya Zabarnyi, who has previously worked with Iraola at Bournemouth and who Hughes previously signed for the Spaniard in his sporting director role with the Cherries.Zabarnyi is pretty much an ideal option for Liverpool. He's an amazing defender, who has proven himself in the Premier League and has now won the Champions League with Paris Saint Germain.He's not the French side's first-choice, which is why he is available and it's an opportunity Liverpool should grab with both hands. Zabarnyi would immediately elevate Iraola's defensive depth.0 Comments 0 Shares 19 Views 0 Reviews

SPORTS.YAHOO.COMWhy Liverpool are ready to make Barcola third 100m signingBradley Barcola has helped Paris St-Germain win the Champions League in the past two seasons [Getty Images]Liverpool have twice paid more than 100m for players - midfielder Florian Wirtz and striker Alexander Isak - and could be about to pay that much once again.Paris St-Germain and France winger Bradley Barcola has become a main target for Liverpool, with the Reds prepared to pay about 100m, while PSG are holding out for somewhere near 145m.Liverpool, who finished fifth in the Premier League last season, 25 points behind champions Arsenal, could eventually end up paying Bayer Leverkusen 116m for Wirtz, while they shelled out a club-record 125m to sign Isak from Newcastle in September. And they could be about to break the bank yet again to bring in 23-year-old Barcola, who was part of France's squad at the World Cup. The club trophies are beginning to stack up already for the fast, direct, skilful winger who loves to run at and an opponent and dribble past them.He came on as a second-half substitute in both the past two Champions League finals, when PSG beat Inter Milan 5-0 in 2024-25 and then in May when they edged past Arsenal on penalties to retain their title.Barcola moved to PSG from Lyon in 2023 for a reported 38.5m and has since also won three Ligue 1 titles, the French Cup twice, as well as the Uefa Super Cup and the Fifa Intercontinental Cup.He is right footed, although he prefers to play on the left wing, but can also play on the right or through the middle. However, with PSG also having Georgia's Khvicha Kvaratskhelia and France's Desire Doue as wide options, Barcola does not play 90 minutes every match so a move to Anfield would give him more playing time.With Mohamed Salah leaving on a free transfer at the end of last season having scored 257 goals in a hugely successful nine-year spell with the Reds, Liverpool clearly need to strengthen their attack.France forward Hugo Ekitike ruptured his Achilles tendon in April and is not expected to play again in 2026, while Cody Gakpo, another who can play on the left and in the middle, has been linked with a move to Tottenham, although Liverpool say they do not want to sell.Barcola has already played 28 times for his country and scored three times in this summer's World Cup, including in the 6-4 loss to England in the third-fourth play-off.However, like at club level, his game time was limited because of the skills of his 21-year-old PSG team-mate Doue. Boss Didier Deschamps stuck with Ballon d'Or holder Ousmane Dembele on the right and rotated Barcola and Doue, with both men starting four of France's eight World Cup matches, but never in the same game.The stats that show Barcola's strengthsAt first glance, Barcola looks like the natural successor to Luis Diaz. Liverpool chose not to sign a direct replacement after the Colombian's departure last summer, but the underlying data suggests the PSG forward could fill that void.Opta's player similarity model rates the Frenchman as the winger whose output most closely resembled Diaz's across Europe's top five leagues in 2025-26 (78%), with Mohamed Salah (65%), Lamine Yamal (61%) and Vinicius Junior (61%) the next closest matches. A closer look, however, suggests Liverpool would not simply be replacing one winger with another.Barcola is a left winger by trade, having played almost all of his Champions League minutes for PSG on that flank, but his game is shaped by a centre-forward's instincts. He played as a striker until the age of 17, something reflected in his movement and shot selection.Last season, he averaged 3.5 shots per 90 minutes in Ligue 1, placing him among the division's most active shooters despite operating from wide areas. His 9.83 expected goals (xG) ranked in the 95th percentile among wingers across Europe's top five leagues, meaning only around 5% of wide players consistently found themselves in better goalscoring positions. Barcola converted those chances into 11 league goals, outperforming his xG, while no PSG player or Ligue 1 winger recorded a higher xG total during the 2025-26 campaign.Those instincts are reflected in how he attacks defenders. Barcola was the only player across Europe's top five leagues to average more than two shot-ending carries per 90 minutes (2.06), illustrating his ability to drive at opponents before creating shooting opportunities for himself. He also averaged 8.69 touches in the opposition penalty area per 90 minutes - the seventh-highest figure among more than 1,500 eligible players - reinforcing the profile of a winger who consistently occupies goalscoring positions.His shot map highlights a player who attacks dangerous central areas rather than settling for speculative efforts from distance. Only Ousmane Dembele had a better combined shot volume with chance creation in Ligue 1, underlining Barcola's rare ability to both finish attacks and create opportunities for team-mates.The comparison with Salah is equally revealing. While both pose a significant goal threat, Barcola is a more direct ball carrier. He attempted more take-ons per 90 than the Egypt forward last season (4.26 to 3.38), but created fewer chances (2.16 to 2.33), attempted far fewer crosses (1.15 to 4.89) and through balls (0.25 to 0.59). The numbers point towards a player who looks to eliminate defenders himself rather than orchestrate attacks from wide areas.There are also signs that his game continues to evolve under Luis Enrique. Barcola's passing profile across his three Champions League campaigns at PSG has become increasingly focused on progressing play in the final third, reflecting greater tactical maturity. Rather than dribbling at every opportunity, he now shows a better understanding of when to accelerate attacks and when to recycle possession.His work without the ball is another reason Liverpool's recruitment team are understood to admire him. Barcola ranked ninth across Europe's top five leagues for possessions won in the final third last season, a metric that reflects the aggressive pressing and intensity likely to be demanded under Andoni Iraola.That profile may suit Liverpool's evolving attack. With Wirtz excelling at releasing runners between the lines, and Ekitike and Isak expected to occupy central defenders, Liverpool arguably need another player capable of attacking space rather than demanding the ball to feet.Barcola's willingness to make penetrative runs and arrive in goalscoring positions could provide exactly that.Perhaps most encouragingly for any prospective buyer, there is reason to believe Barcola has not yet reached his ceiling. A late physical developer, he has already transformed from a promising Lyon academy graduate into a two-time Champions League winner with PSG. At just 23, his blend of pace, intelligent movement, elite shot volume, relentless pressing and growing creative output suggests one of Europe's most complete young wide forwards is still improving.Inside Liverpool's summer so far - should fans be worried?A youngster to watch at each Premier League club this seasonLiverpool ship four second-half goals to leave Iraola with much to ponderWhat the fans thinkJohn: Truly flabbergasted at his price. Not denying his quality and potential but when you hear Vinicius Jr is valued at 137m you have to give your head a scratch.Lee: He's proved his worth. A big signing for the new manager makes sense, get the season started with a buzz. Realistically we still need to look at the back four conundrum though.Stu: Barcola would be a good signing but he's not worth anywhere near 100m, never mind 145m. He's a squad player at PSG. If they won't accept 70m max then move on to someone else.Andrew: Ridiculous amount of money. Can Barcola actually last a full 90 minutes? He seemed to be subbed between 60 and 70 mins. I hope that proves to be wrong if we buy him.Paul: There appears to be enough attacking options already, surely last year showed the need is in defence. Make the backline solid and build out from there.Latest Liverpool news, analysis and fan viewsAsk about Liverpool - what do you want to know?0 Comments 0 Shares 18 Views 0 Reviews
