Liverpool has initiated contact with agent Jorge Mendes to close the signing of Ibrahima Mbaye, an 18-year-old winger from PSG, in this summer transfer market, where the Reds are trying to revamp their entire offensive rotation.

The team led by Andoni Iraola is looking to strengthen the right flank after Mohamed Salah's departure and already has the approval of the Senegalese international, whose contract at Parc des Princes expires in June 2028.

Negotiations for Ibrahima Mbaye and His Fit at Liverpool

As reported by RMC Sport, the Reds' board is set to engage in direct talks with the Parisian leadership after Mbaye's transfer to RB Leipzig fell through due to the Diomande operation failure. The 18-year-old forward prefers to join Anfield over other Bundesliga offers to compete in the right-wing with Federico Chiesa and academy player Kieran Morrison.

PSG is willing to transfer the winger in this transfer window, enabling Liverpool to progress in the transfer conditions. The performances of the academy player with the Senegal national team have intensified Iraola's interest in adding his services for the 2026/2027 season.

Liverpool's Interest in Bradley Barcola and PSG's Sales Balance

Parallel to the negotiations for Mbaye, Liverpool is keeping an eye on Bradley Barcola, although the set price by the French entity exceeds €150 million. The French winger has two years left on his contract in Paris, complicating an immediate agreement without jeopardizing the English club's economic structure.

On the other hand, PSG's board has accumulated around €150 million in sales this summer after finalizing transfers of Kang-in Lee to Atletico Madrid, Gonçalo Ramos to AC Milan, and Randal Kolo Muani to Juventus. This sum allows the French club to demand high amounts for Barcola while facilitating the exit of the 18-year-old forward.

Liverpool executives and PSG representatives will hold a formal meeting during the second week of August 2026. The British entity's goal is to agree on the final price of Ibrahima Mbaye before August 12 to incorporate the player into the pre-season training ahead of the official start of the Premier League.
