Liverpool Push to Land Ibrahim Mbaye in Ambitious Double PSG Raid

PARIS - Liverpool have intensified their efforts to sign Paris Saint-Germain’s 18-year-old winger Ibrahim Mbaye, with the player granting his green light for a potential move to Anfield.

Liverpool are actively seeking to strengthen their right-wing options, and Mbaye has emerged as a key target alongside his PSG teammate Bradley Barcola, with the Reds aiming to secure both attackers in a ambitious summer move.

Reports from both Fabrizio and Hawkins: 

• Green Light Given: Mbaye is keen on joining Liverpool and prioritizes the move to Merseyside above other potential destinations.
• Club-to-Club Talks: Formal negotiations between Liverpool and PSG for Mbaye are expected to commence shortly following player approval. The topic was already touched upon during existing club dialogues for Barcola.
• Agent Connections: Liverpool have maintained direct contact with Mbaye's representative, Jorge Mendes, to outline their plans and project.
• Leverkusen Competition: Bayer Leverkusen remain in the race, having submitted an official bid to PSG. Senior figures at both clubs Nasser Al-Khelaifi and Fernando Carro enjoy a strong relationship, though Liverpool’s project remains the player's priority.
