RMC Sports said PSG want €70m for Mbaye.
What's worse, €70m for Mbaye or €70m for Minteh?
21 Aug 2026 19:10:09
Liverpool will go for Minteh.
Prem proven, you know what you're getting and can improve.
Not a lot of rw out there for what Liverpool want.
21 Aug 2026 19:12:08
Brighton want £70m not EUR70m, so I'd be going for Mbaye all day long.

The money is insane. I haven't gotten my head around the inflated prices this summer.
But if they are priced the same, I'm taking Minteh. You know Minteh can cut it in the Premier League, and I think Minteh has a high ceiling.
Mbaye is more of an unknown.
Minteh is also much quicker and stronger.
But Mbaye is also a talent. He should just be cheaper than Minteh at this stage.
I still think a Minteh Isak Barcola front 3 is a good way to go.
The money is just bananas. I've given up on thinking about that.

Why is Mbaye all of a sudden worth €70m?
Didn't Leverkusen agree with PSG on something closer to €50m just before we came in?

How is Minteh prem proven? What has he actually proven? That he can run without the ball, pretty low bar.
Mbaye all day. He has shown he is far more talented than Minteh. For those that think he is overpriced, how much do you think Rio is worth?
21 Aug 2026 19:36:11
No way should we be paying EUR70m for Mbaye!!
21 Aug 2026 19:39:44
@Gregarious, I believe that is why we looked at alternatives - because PSG expected us to pay more than Leverkusen. Now, it seems that we are willing to pay a lot more for a backup option just to prove a point.

PSG might have included a buyback clause when Leverkusen was interested in signing him.
21 Aug 2026 19:45:16
Jesus Christ, this shows how much I watch and care for other teams. I genuinely thought Minteh was the Japanese international lad at Brighton, but that's Mitoma.
I even watched his highlight reel on YouTube last night ??♂️.
21 Aug 2026 19:51:05
We need a RW.
Teams know this.
Can ask for whatever they want now.
Should have been well sorted by now, not 2 days before season starts for us.
21 Aug 2026 19:59:19
JK23, same here. I was convinced it was Mitoma until I saw the clip and was like ohhhh.

For a football site, people don't half spend a lot of time talking about money, and it's funny because most of us don't have a clue about how the financing of deals for football players works.

I'd sign Minteh, Mbaye, and Barcola. Gives you crazy amounts of pace and with rate from kick off and from the bench - and I think the squad will need that as it gets used to the demands of Iraola's system. As for the money? Hardly worth thinking about, prices are insane if you're an English club.
Look at Jones - if he moves to another English team his price would be close to doubled. Market is skewed because the Prem is rich, that's it.
