London [UK], September 1: Liverpool have completed the signing of Bradley Barcola from Paris St Germain in a £123million ($166.4 million) deal.
The Reds will pay a basic £106 million for the France international and up to £17 million in potential add-ons.
Forward Barcola, 23, has agreed a "long-term contract" at Anfield.
"It took a long time but I'm really happy today to be able to play for Liverpool and all I want is to be on the pitch and be able to play," he told the club website.
"I hope to achieve very big things. First of all, winning the Premier League - it's one of my biggest dreams in my life.
"It is to do that and to stay in this team in the long term - that's why I signed a long contract - and I hope I can do it." Barcola, a member of the PSG squad which won back-to-back Champions League titles in the past two seasons, was Liverpool's top target throughout the summer.
The French champions initially wanted £145 million for the player but there was a breakthrough in negotiations last week.
Barcola joined PSG from Lyon in a £38.6 million deal in 2023.
He registered 39 goals in 152 appearances and won three successive Ligue 1 titles during his time in Paris.
Barcola made his France debut in June 2024 and has scored six times in 28 games for his country.
Three of those goals came at this summer's World Cup, where Les Bleus finished fourth.
