PSG transfer news – AS Roma join long list of suitors for Mbaye

Ibrahim Mbaye, the 18-year-old Paris Saint-Germain forward, is one of the club’s brightest prospects. According to Corriere Dello Sport, the Paris academy product, who is under contract until 2028, is also said to be of interest to AS Roma, while the Italian newspaper confirms that the Senegal international is attracting other suitors as well.

“Clubs used to carefully developing young talents on the verge of becoming stars.”

“Roma tempted by Mbaye: a loan with an option to buy. Securing the services of this young talent would require overcoming fierce competition. The Senegal international is reportedly also being tracked by Borussia Dortmund, Leipzig, Tottenham and Atlético Madrid, clubs used to carefully developing young talents on the verge of becoming stars.

“The sums being mentioned are high for a player of his age”

Luis Enrique is also said to rate the young player very highly, to the point of having asked the Qatari owners to keep him under their control at all costs. PSG have therefore not ruled out a transfer, especially to a club playing in the Champions League, provided they have the final say on the player’s future. The sums being mentioned are high for a player of his age, having turned 18 seven months ago, but not outrageous given his potential and above all the prices currently seen on the market: figures of 25 to 30 million euros are being discussed for a release clause in a year’s time, with a buy-back option set between 35 and 40 million euros.”

Nothing is impossible, and Mbaye has shown strong qualities that could attract top clubs. Including AS Roma, who are looking to strengthen their attack and are seeing Cysenscio Summerville (24, Netherlands and West Ham) slip away as Saudi Arabia have made an exceptional offer.

It now remains to be seen what the player wants. As a Paris academy product, it is entirely possible that he will prioritize his future with the Rouge et Bleu club. If the coach gives him the necessary playing time, he has every chance of continuing to improve and becoming a regular starter for this team given his potential.

Now, some clubs could already offer him a starting place in the team. So it all depends on the player’s wishes, but also on PSG’s plans for their young forward. Nothing is set in stone, but it is perfectly logical that a player with Mbaye’s potential would attract interest from Europe’s biggest clubs.
