Paris Saint-Germain are preparing to fight a fierce battle to keep one of their greatest hopes alive. Ibrahim Mbaye, a real revelation of the season under the orders of Luis Enrique, has become the priority target of Aston Villa and Arsenal. Faced with this threat from across the Channel, Parisian management decided to go on the offensive to secure its Senegalese international Titi with a new long-term contract.
An 18-year-old Lion who panics the Premier League

Propelled to the forefront by Luis Enrique (33 matches played, 1,221 minutes of play), the winger shone with his ability to create gaps.

PSG wants to concrete until 2030
Although its current lease runs until June 2028, PSG does not want to take any risks. Luis Campos’ objective is to offer an extension of two additional years to link the nugget to the club until June 2030. This maneuver aims to set a dissuasive market value and send a strong signal: the Parisian project relies more than ever on its talents from the academy.
A salary increase to align with future executives
The other lever concerns salary. Currently, Ibrahim Mbaye receives one of the lowest salaries in the professional workforce. To counter the incredible offers from Aston Villa, PSG plans to increase its salary to 2 million euros annually as relayed by our colleagues from Top Market.
