At 18 years old, Ibrahim Mbaye, winger for Paris Saint-Germain, is naturally attracting attention across Europe. According to Sky Sport DE and its journalist Florian Plettenberg, several Premier League clubs, including Chelsea FC and Aston Villa FC, are closely monitoring the young Parisian. As for PSG, they are not considering letting him go and could even activate the option of a new contract.

“Several Premier League clubs would be delighted to sign Ibrahim Mbaye before the end of the transfer window. Chelsea and Aston Villa, for example, are keeping a close eye on him. However, PSG wants to keep him. A new contract is even being considered. At present, there is absolutely NO question of letting him leave. This promising 18-year-old winger is under contract with Paris Saint-Germain until 2028. @SkySportDE”
It is not unusual for an 18-year-old winger, trained and launched at Paris Saint-Germain, to be courted by English clubs. The Premier League keeps a close watch on anyone who is fast, talented, and has room for improvement. Mbaye ticks all the boxes. But reducing the situation to mere interest would miss the essential point: the player is progressing in his own environment. Integrated into daily life in Paris, exposed to the demands of the highest level and to competition, he is gaining maturity without skipping steps.
The club’s message is clear: no rush, no opportunistic sale. PSG sees Mbaye as a project, not just a line on the balance sheet. At a time when Paris is looking to consolidate its talents rather than see them flourish elsewhere, staying the course makes sense. What happens next will be decided on the pitch: carefully managed playing time, continuous progress, and a career path that is built, not imported.
