Aston Villa have officially announced the signing of Paris Saint-Germain winger Ibrahima Mbaye. Sky Sports reports that Villa Park will pay £47 million for the wide player. The Birmingham club has not disclosed the length of the player's contract, but it is believed to be for five years. Mbaye was also a strong target for Liverpool, but PSG's asking price of £70 million at the time deterred the Merseyside club.
The winger becomes Aston Villa's tenth new signing this summer, with the total expenditure on new players now approaching €300 million. Villa Park has already welcomed significant names such as Leon Goretzka, Nicolas Jackson, and Aaron Wan-Bissaka, alongside talented young prospects like Johan Manzambi, Zion Suzuki, and Alejandro Garnacho, a group Mbaye is expected to join. Unai Emery's side has had a challenging start to the season, recording two consecutive defeats against Brighton and Arsenal.
