“Liverpool will be hoping to make headway on a potential deal in the coming days and weeks, and they’ll be hoping they can possibly get a deal done for the 18-year-old as soon as possible.”
The Senegal international is a prodigious talent with a bright future, and he could be an asset for the Reds. Mbaye will add pace, flair and directness to the team.
Liverpool looked quite blunt going forward last season, and they need more unpredictability. Mohamed Salah has left the club, and they need to replace the Egyptian as well.
Mbaye might not be able to replicate Salah’s end product for now, but he could develop into a star for Liverpool in future.
Regular football in England could accelerate his development and help him fulfil his potential. He is not a guaranteed starter for PSG, and leaving the French club would be ideal for him.
It remains to be seen whether Liverpool can agree on a fee for him. PSG are prepared to sell for the right price.
Meanwhile, Liverpool are looking at Bradley Barcola from the French club as well. However, the French international will be a much more expensive proposition. It remains to be seen whether they can sign the Senegal International for a reasonable amount of money.
