Liverpool<\/a> have reportedly made contact to sign Paris Saint-Germain forward Ibrahim Mbaye, as per transfer<\/a> expert Fabrizio Romano<\/span><\/a>.<\/strong><\/p>\n The 18-year-old started his youth career at ES Guyancourt before spending a few years with Versailles. He joined Les Parisiens\u2019 academy at the age of 10.<\/p>\n After rising through their youth system, the youngster made his first team debut a couple of years ago and has enjoyed great success in recent seasons, winning two Ligue 1 titles, as many Champions League<\/a> trophies and several other major cup competitions.<\/p>\n However, he has struggled to break into Luis Enrique\u2019s star-studded starting line-up, making five goal contributions in 11 starts across the Champions League and Ligue 1 last term.<\/p>\n Although he hasn\u2019t been playing regularly in club football, Mbaye has secured his place in the Senegal squad.<\/p>\n Now, on X<\/span><\/a>, Romano<\/em> states that Liverpool have made direct contacts with the player\u2019s new agent, Jorge Mendes, over a possible move and Mbaye has been tempted by the prospect of playing at Anfield.<\/p>\n The youngster was close to joining RB Leipzig earlier this summer but the deal has now collapsed following Yan Diomande\u2019s decision to join Real Madrid<\/a>.<\/p>\n The journalist<\/span><\/a> claims that Bayer Leverkusen are close to reaching an agreement with Les Parisiens to sign the African but he is prioritising joining Liverpool.<\/p>\n Mbaye is valued at around \u00a326m by Transfermarkt<\/span><\/a> and has a contract until 2028. So, PSG are in a strong position to demand a sizable amount of money to let him leave this summer.<\/p>\n Mbaye is a right-footed versatile winger as he is comfortable on either flank. He is quick, technically sound, and can dribble past opposition defenders in tight areas.<\/p>\n The PSG star is a talented player and possesses the potential to reach the top. Therefore, he would be a shrewd acquisition for Liverpool should they purchase him.<\/p>\n However, it is going to be interesting to see whether the Merseyside club eventually manage to lure him away from Parc des Princes ahead of next season.<\/p>\n Meanwhile, Liverpool are prioritising revamping the frontline this summer and are keen<\/span><\/a> on signing Bradley Barcola alongside Mbaye. Moreover, the Reds have already purchased Victor Mu\u00f1oz from Osasuna.<\/p>\n \t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\tMbaye to Liverpool<\/h2>\n
