Liverpool are pushing to sign Paris Saint-Germain winger Ibrahim Mbaye, according to journalist Fabrice Hawkins.
The Reds are now expected to begin negotiations with PSG for the Senegalese winger.
Bayer Leverkusen are also interested in the 18-year-old. They were close to securing a deal, but he is prioritising a move to Liverpool.
RB Leipzig almost signed Mbaye, but the deal collapsed after PSG withdrew their interest in Yan Diomande.
Aston Villa and Tottenham Hotspur have been linked with the France-born forward.
Mbaye has made 42 appearances across all competitions for the Parisians, bagging four goals and four assists.
The teenager made his senior debut for Senegal in 2025. He is the Teranga Lions’ youngest-ever goalscorer at the Africa Cup of Nations and the youngest African goalscorer in FIFA World Cup history.
The Senegalese can operate on both flanks. He is renowned for his explosive pace, excellent dribbling, composure, movement and high work rate.
Mbaye has struggled to secure regular playing time at PSG, and he is open to leaving the club this summer.
Liverpool could be the perfect destination for Mbaye, as they are looking to sign a right winger following Mohamed Salah’s departure.
They are also interested in Mbaye’s teammate Bradley Barcola, but must reach a compromise with the French champions over his valuation before a deal can be completed.
