While Mbaye’s asking price is expected to be more than the initially speculated €40 million, he appears to be a more affordable option for the Reds.
Head coach Andoni Iraola’s squad has a significant vacancy left by Mohamed Salah, where Mbaye could be effectively positioned.

Additionally, Cody Gakpo seems poised to join Tottenham Hotspur, intensifying the immediate need for new attackers.
It is highly anticipated that this move could kickstart further recruitment efforts at Anfield.
A dual acquisition from the reigning European champions would signify strong ambition from Liverpool.
