Paris Saint-Germain: Ibrahim Mbaye on the verge of departure?

Having already built an impressive resume, Ibrahim Mbaye is now seeking to take his career to the next level. A French champion, French Cup winner, UEFA Super Cup holder, and twice a Champions League winner with Paris Saint-Germain, the 18-year-old Senegalese striker is above all... hungry for real playing time.

Last season, the young Parisian featured in 28 matches across all competitions, but started only 11 times and scored 3 goals. This amount of time on the pitch is deemed insufficient, even though he is under contract until June 2028.

According to Foot Mercato, the forward is seriously considering leaving the current European champions. Tottenham and Aston Villa are closely monitoring his situation, with Unai Emery’s Villans reportedly the most determined to land him.

Valued at €30 million by Transfermarkt, Mbaye’s stock has soared after his standout performances at the last World Cup. As a result, a summer exit for the Senegalese jewel cannot be ruled out.
