Paris Saint-Germain winger Ibrahim Mbaye could leave the club this summer as he seeks more regular playing time, with several top European sides reportedly monitoring his situation.
The 18-year-old Senegalese prospect has struggled for opportunities in recent weeks and was again omitted from the matchday squad by head coach Luis Enrique, raising further questions about his short-term future in the French capital. His absence comes amid growing interest from clubs across Europe, including Liverpool FC.
Mbaye, who is under contract with Paris Saint-Germain until June 2028, is said to be keen on finding a new challenge where he can continue his development. Despite his young age, he has already drawn attention for his pace and technical qualities—attributes that have made him a notable prospect within the PSG system.
According to transfer specialist Fabrizio Romano, Liverpool have received a favourable evaluation of the player through the SciSports data analysis platform. This has intensified speculation that the Premier League side could be among those considering a move when the transfer window opens.
Mbaye’s recent lack of involvement has been striking. He was not included in the squad for a key fixture against Lyon and has recorded zero minutes in matches against Toulouse and Liverpool, as well as missing other recent selections. The situation has led to increased discussion about his role within the squad and whether a departure may be the best option for all parties.
A post circulating online highlighted his absence, stating:
“🚨❌ Ibrahim Mbaye completely left out by Luis Enrique.Not even in the squad against OL tonight.0 minutes vs Toulouse0 minutes vs Liverpool (x2)Omitted against Lyon.Things are starting to look bad… hot topic for this summer. 👀”
Despite limited minutes, Mbaye has made 19 Ligue 1 appearances this season, contributing one goal and two assists. His relatively modest output has not diminished interest, however, with his potential seen as a key factor driving attention from abroad.
With an estimated market value of around €30 million, PSG could face a decision over whether to retain the youngster or allow him to move on in search of regular first-team football. For Mbaye, the coming months may prove pivotal as he weighs his options ahead of what is expected to be a busy summer transfer window.
As speculation continues, his situation is one to watch closely, particularly if interest from major European clubs develops into formal offers.
