Aston Villa have completed the signing of 18-year-old Senegal winger Ibrahim Mbaye from Paris Saint-Germain for €55 million, around £47 million. The teenager joins after featuring at the 2026 World Cup and becoming the youngest African scorer in tournament history.
Mbaye progressed through PSG’s academy after joining from Versailles in 2018 and made his senior debut aged 16. Villa add him to an attack already reinforced by Alejandro Garnacho, Johan Manzambi and Nicolas Jackson during a major summer rebuild.
