Manchester United and Tottenham Compete for PSG Star Ibrahim Mbaye

Manchester United has joined the race to sign Senegalese forward Ibrahim Mbaye from Paris Saint-Germain during the summer transfer window, competing with Tottenham Hotspur for the player's signature.

According to "CaughtOffside," the 18-year-old Mbaye has not received regular playing time at Paris Saint-Germain, having played 998 minutes in Ligue 1 last season, contributing to five goals despite his immense potential.

The report adds that Manchester United sees the Senegal international as a long-term project to bolster their attacking line, particularly on the wing, thanks to his great speed and dribbling ability. He has also been linked with interest from Liverpool.

Tottenham is also monitoring the player, as the club aims to enhance the quality of their flanks, setting the stage for a battle between the two English clubs to secure the deal during the summer transfer window.

The same source confirmed that Manchester United has already begun preparing an offer to sign Mbaye, leveraging their financial capacity, while the crucial step remains convincing Paris Saint-Germain to part with their young talent.

The report notes that Ibrahim Mbaye is looking for more playing minutes at this stage of his career, which could lead him to welcome a move to the Premier League if he receives guarantees of participation, especially after catching attention with a stunning goal against France during the 2026 World Cup qualifiers.
