Ibrahim Mbaye, an 18-year-old forward developed at Paris Saint-Germain and under professional contract until 2028, is set to leave during this transfer window as he seeks more playing time. Several clubs had been linked to him, including Liverpool, but he will ultimately continue his career at Aston Villa. Le Parisien reported on Saturday evening that he has completed his medical examination.
Having arrived in Birmingham this afternoon, Ibrahim Mbaye has just completed his medical examination.
Given the recent trend—with multiple media outlets reporting a €55 million deal—it is safe to assume Mbaye has indeed cleared this crucial hurdle. Journalists rarely make such definitive statements without cause. An official announcement can now be expected very soon, possibly as early as this weekend. It will be an opportunity to bid Mbaye a proper farewell and wish him well on this exciting new adventure.
