Bayer Leverkusen are presented as the most eager club, as they have made significant progress in discussions with PSG. However, the German side do not have €50m to invest in Mbaye.

According to Ben Jacobs, Bayer Leverkusen and Paris Saint-Germain are in direct club-to-club talks for Ibrahim Mbaye, with Nasser Al-Khelaifi and Fernando Carro both part of those discussions. Jacobs also stated that Mbaye is expected to leave PSG this summer. Fabrizio Romano stated that the agreement between the clubs is close, but that Mbaye's priority is the Liverpool project.

According to Fabrizio Romano, Bayer Leverkusen have sent a proposal to PSG for Ibrahima Mbaye. Talks have reportedly taken place over the last few days, and the clubs are close to an agreement.

According to Bild, Ibrahim Mbaye is one candidate for a potential transfer to Bayer Leverkusen. He is considered the next top talent from the Paris Saint-Germain academy and would cost over 40 million euros. However, Bayer has never paid such an amount for a player.

Bayer Leverkusen has recently inquired about the situation of Paris Saint-Germain winger Ibrahim Mbaye, according to RMC Sport. The Parisian club values Mbaye at over 50 million euros and would only consider discussing a transfer for an exceptional offer. The player has also recently joined the agency Gestifute, which is represented by Jorge Mendes.

Bayer Leverkusen, Liverpool, and Chelsea have all made enquiries about 18-year-old winger Ibrahim Mbaye, while other European clubs have also had their interest noted. It is reported that Mbaye is frustrated with his playing time and impatient due to a lack of guarantees about his future status at PSG, where his contract runs until June 2028. The club values the player at 50 million euros, but some July 2026 reports indicated PSG would consider offers of approximately €35 million, while interested clubs plan to bid around €25 million.
