David Ornstein reports that Aston Villa have reached an agreement in principle to sign 18‑year‑old forward Ibrahim Mbaye from Paris Saint‑Germain. The deal is said to be valued at €55m, with the fee undisclosed beyond that figure. The report notes that the relationship between Nasser Al‑Khelaifi and Nassef Sawiris is key to finalising the move.

Three outlets are currently following the story as it develops. Onside’s model estimates Mbaye’s valuation at €37m, indicating the reported fee is above the platform’s calculated value. The model assigns a 95% confidence level to the information.

The transfer remains at the bid stage and has not been confirmed by either club. Should the agreement be finalised, Mbaye would move from Paris Saint‑Germain to Aston Villa, pending a formal announcement and completion of contractual terms.
