An explosive start to the season. At the age of 22, Bradley Barcola has established himself as the successor par excellence to Kylian Mbappé on the left side of the Parisian attack. However, match after match, the former Olympique Lyonnais experienced a decline in performance. Famous for his crazy speed and his devastating dribbles, the French international no longer passes in front of his opponents.
Thus, many criticisms fell on the shoulders of the young Habs. In addition, with the probable arrival of Khvicha Kvaratskhelia this winter, the Paris Saint-Germain winger will see increasing competition for his position. And in this new year, the native of Villeurbanne has made big internal resolutions in order to remain the face of the Ile-de-France avant-garde for this second part of the season.
Being unpredictable, a strong man in the Champions League, the Blues…
Given the upcoming competition, Bradley Barcola will have to strengthen his game to keep his starting place in the left lane. To do this, the one who revealed himself under the colors of Olympique Lyonnais has his work cut out for him and already knows in which sector he will have to progress. According to the latest indiscretions from L’Equipe, the Paris Saint-Germain winger will have to wear the label of a technical leader on the pitch. A role he has already started working on: “I know that I have more responsibilities than in the past. So, I will do everything possible tomorrow to score, to make people score. I am not someone who talks a lot on the pitch. But gradually, I try to improve on this point by speaking before matches and giving more instructions on the pitch.”he declared at a press conference in early December.
But the Habs also intend to become even more unpredictable than in the past. Indeed, the sports daily reports that it will have to renew itself to make the oh-so-important differences to the left of the Parisian attack. And this also involves a long video analysis process with the staff. In addition, the ex-gone will have to be even more decisive in the Champions League, where he is still a little short compared to his partners, he who only has one goal in 16 games. To prove himself formidable on European pitches, he works even more in front of goal at the end in addition to classic training sessions.
Finally, Bradley Barcola intends to settle into the French team for the next upcoming events. If he has reached a milestone with Paris Saint-Germain, the former Lyon player will have to do the same with the Blues. However, everything could depend on Kylian Mbappé. Indeed, at Real Madrid, the Bondy prodigy occupies the position of striker, thus leaving room for Vinicius in the left lane. And it could well be the same story for Bradley Barcola. Indeed, his playing time under the leadership of Didier Deschamps will depend on the positioning of the French captain. The year 2025 promises to be a busy one for the Ile-de-France winger who has some great goals to accomplish between now and the end of the season.
