In an ideal world, Liverpool might have signed Anthony Gordon during the summer transfer window, instead of getting close to matching their transfer record to sign Bradley Barcola.
The Frenchman, whose $163 million fee was only marginally less than the $168 million the Reds agreed to pay for Alexander Isak, is still yet to produce in a Liverpool shirt. He’s six matches in and the dual-threat winger who put down 42 goals and assists for Paris Saint-Germain in 2024–25 so far has zero for his new club. It’s still early days, but a transfer fee that demands more straight off the bat.
