Liverpool<\/a> are reportedly considering making a move to sign Paris Saint-Germain forward Ibrahim Mbaye, as per transfer<\/a> journalist Ben Jacobs<\/span><\/a>.<\/strong><\/p>\n

Following Mohamed Salah<\/a>\u2019s departure, the Reds have purchased Victor Mu\u00f1oz from Osasuna. So, Andoni Iraola currently has the Spaniard plus Cody Gakpo, Rio Ngumoha and Federico Chiesa as winger options.<\/p>\n

However, Gakpo has been heavily linked<\/span><\/a> with a move to Tottenham<\/a>, while Chiesa has struggled to find his feet in the Premier League<\/a> since joining from Juventus.<\/p>\n

On the other hand, Ngumoha is still very young and his game time needs to be managed carefully to help him reach his full potential. So, Liverpool want to buy more wingers in this window.<\/p>\n

The Merseyside club have expressed their interest in signing Brighton and Hove Albion star Yankuba Minteh and have already seen their two proposals<\/span><\/a> worth up to \u00a360m rejected by the Seagulls. They want \u00a370m to let him leave.<\/p>\n

Moreover, PSG\u2019s Bradley Barcola has been heavily linked<\/span><\/a> with a move to Anfield, but Liverpool haven\u2019t been able to reach an agreement with Les Parisiens to seal the deal.<\/p>\n

Now, on Givemesport<\/span><\/a>, Jacobs<\/em> states that if Liverpool eventually fail to sign Barcola, they have identified Mbaye as a potential alternative option, with the player open to moving to Anfield.<\/p>\n

Mbaye to Liverpool<\/h2>\n

Meanwhile, French journalist Fabrice Hawkins<\/span><\/a> has reported that Liverpool have already agreed on personal terms with Mbaye but don\u2019t want to finalise the operation by matching PSG\u2019s \u00a360m valuation.<\/p>\n

The Reds don\u2019t want to spend more than \u00a343m for Mbaye, with his existing deal set to run until 2028. Barcola and Mbaye won\u2019t feature for PSG during the remainder of this transfer window.<\/p>\n

Mbaye is a technically gifted right-footed versatile forward as he is comfortable on either flank. He is quick, can dribble past opposition defenders in tight areas, is efficient in finishing off his chances, and works hard without possession.<\/p>\n

The youngster is a talented player and possesses the potential to reach the top. So, he might be a shrewd acquisition for Liverpool with a view to the long-term future should they purchase him.<\/p>\n

However, it is going to be interesting to see whether the Merseyside club eventually opt to reinforce the frontline by purchasing Mbaye this summer.<\/p>\n
