Liverpool targets second PSG winger! But Paris drives the price sky-high

Ibrahim Mbaye could be on his way out of Paris Saint-Germain soon, with negotiations already underway.

Details: According to Fabrizio Romano, Liverpool have spoken with the player's new agent, Jorge Mendes, and the 18-year-old Senegalese winger himself is excited by the Reds' project. The only stumbling block is the price tag: PSG's valuation of €40-50 million currently looks excessive to the Liverpool management.

Liverpool is strengthening its attack on two fronts at once: the saga with Bradley Barcola, whom PSG have valued at £145 million, is running in parallel. Meanwhile, half of Europe is monitoring Mbaye: Manchester United have already made an inquiry, while Bayern, Borussia, Leipzig, Leverkusen, City, Chelsea, and Aston Villa are all keeping tabs on the situation.

Mbaye is already a star: last season, he played 31 matches for PSG, became the youngest top scorer in the Africa Cup of Nations in the 21st century, and netted against France at the World Cup. Transfermarkt values him at €30 million, so if Liverpool manages to strike a compromise, this could become one of the standout young signings of the summer.
