From France: Liverpool interested in€50m PSG forward

The Ligue 1 champions hold an immense amount of talent within their ranks.

Liverpool’s search for attacking reinforcements has already seen them strengthen with the arrival of Victor Muñoz this summer but the Reds continue to be linked with several exciting forwards as preparations for the new season gather pace.

While much of the recent attention has centred on Bradley Barcola, another Paris Saint-Germain talent has now emerged as a player being closely monitored at Anfield.

Liverpool have made no secret of their desire to add further quality in the final third, with youth and long-term potential seemingly key factors in their recruitment strategy.

That approach could make PSG wonderkid Ibrahim Mbaye an intriguing option should Liverpool decide to explore a deal further.

According to RMC Sport, relayed by Fabrice Hawkins on X, Liverpool are among a host of Europe’s biggest clubs keeping tabs on the 18-year-old winger.

Tottenham Hotspur, Manchester City, Borussia Dortmund, Bayer Leverkusen and Chelsea have also all made enquiries over the French youngster’s situation as interest continues to grow.

The report adds that PSG are open to listening to offers under the right circumstances, although they would demand more than €50 million to sanction Mbaye’s departure.

Such a valuation underlines just how highly the Ligue 1 giants rate one of the brightest prospects to emerge from their academy.

Mbaye is regarded as one of the standout talents to come through PSG’s renowned youth system in recent years.

Comfortable operating on either flank, the explosive forward is known for his pace, direct dribbling and willingness to take defenders on, qualities that have already seen him break into the senior setup despite still being only 18.

Whether Liverpool would be prepared to meet PSG’s asking price remains to be seen, particularly with their continued admiration for Barcola and other wide options.

However, this latest report suggests the Reds are doing their homework on multiple attacking targets rather than focusing on a single deal.

With competition from several European heavyweights and PSG placing a premium on Mbaye’s services, any move would be far from straightforward.

Nevertheless, Liverpool’s interest is another indication that the club continues to look towards elite young talent as it plans for both the present and the future.

Ibrahim Mbaye intéresse plusieurs clubs européens : Tottenham, Liverpool, Manchester City, le Borussia Dortmund, le Bayer Leverkusen et Chelsea font partie des clubs qui sont intéressés.

Les dirigeants valorisent leur jeune talent à plus de 50 millions d’euros. 🔴🔵…
