Tug-of-war over! Europa League winners win race for PSG talent
The 18-year-old was linked with countless top clubs in Europe. Now Aston Villa has secured the signing of the top talent.
Ibrahim Mbaye moves from Paris Saint-Germain to Aston Villa in the Premier League.
The 18-year-old joins the "Villans" for 55 million Euros. There is no information yet regarding the contract duration.
The Senegalese is expected to compensate for Morgan Rogers' record departure to Chelsea in Unai Emery's team.
Throughout the summer, clubs from the German Bundesliga (Leverkusen, Leipzig, Bayern, Dortmund), Porto, and league rival Liverpool were interested.
Debut at 16 for PSG
After Warren-Zaire-Emery, Mbaye was the second-youngest player ever to feature for PSG.
In total, the winger has already made 42 appearances for the Parisians, contributing four goals and four assists.
He played in all four matches for the Senegal national team at the last World Cup finals.
After two matches and two defeats, Aston Villa are still without a goal.
