Bayern Munich’s interest in PSG's Bradley Barcola had started quietly, but it picked up pace in recent weeks as the German club intensified its search for a left-winger. With targets slipping through, the 22-year-old French talent shot to the top of their list.

This Saturday, in the quarter-finals of the 2025 Club World Cup, Paris Saint-Germain take on Bayern Munich at Mercedes-Benz Stadium (kick-off 6pm CET, broadcast on DAZN). On the eve of the match, the press tried to guess the team that will be fielded by Paris coach Luis Enrique.

When Bayern Munich took down Paris Saint-Germain 1-0 in the League Phase of the Champions League last season, there was little-to-know indication that the soon-to-be UCL champions would hold a grudge....but — apparently — they are. Just ask Bradley Barcola.
