Faithful to its strategy of highlighting young talents, PSG has reached a milestone in the management of one of its prodigies. According to The Teamthe club officially offered a first professional contract to Ibrahim Mbayeyoung 16-year-old striker.
Mbaye, who has already been training with the first team under Luis Enrique since the restart this summer, is seen as a promising element for the future of the club. The Spanish coach does not hide his enthusiasm:“Ibrahim is very young, but he has been training with us since the beginning. This daily experience with the best is a unique school. He has the potential to help us this season, and he will often be in the group.”
Under an aspiring contract until 2026, Mbaye's journey is reminiscent of that of Warren Zaire-Emery, who signed his first professional contract in 2022, a few months after his debut in the first team. A trajectory that the young attacker could follow, supported by Zoumana Camara, former U19 coach: “Ibrahim has all the necessary qualities: he is powerful, durable and capable of creating gaps in defenses. In a team like that of PSG, which values possession and space, he has already proven that he knows how to make the difference .”
PSG knows how crucial it is to manage the development of its young players. The contract proposal marks a first step in Ibrahim Mbaye's career, and supporters are already hoping that he will be able to follow in the footsteps of his predecessors and write a new page in Parisian history.
