Aston Villa has completed the signing of Senegal winger Ibrahim Mbaye from Paris Saint-Germain for a reported £47 million (US$63 million). The 18-year-old played 31 times for PSG last season, assisting in their Champions League and Ligue 1 victories. Mbaye has also represented Senegal 15 times, scoring against France at the 2026 FIFA World Cup, making him the youngest African player to score in a men's World Cup tournament.
Aston Villa expressed excitement over the signing of the bright and promising young prospect, who joined on a permanent basis. This adds to a busy transfer window for Villa, who have recently sold several players and signed new defenders Taylor Harwood-Bellis for £29 million.
