Greenwood Valuation Mandates Strategic Shift to PSG Starlet

The Italian club had initially prioritized a move for Mason Greenwood, but negotiations with Olympique de Marseille stalled over financial demands. Marseille refuses to budge on their valuation, forcing Roma to explore alternative targets in the French market.

Marseille demands at least 50 million euros including bonuses for Greenwood, a fee met by Atletico Madrid and Fenerbahce but deemed too high by Roma. Consequently, the Giallorossi have turned to PSG's 18-year-old Senegal international Ibrahim Mbaye to bolster their wing options.

Mbaye is reportedly under contract until June 2028 but is eager to leave the French capital due to limited first-team opportunities. Italian media outlet Solo la Roma reports that Juventus and several Premier League clubs are monitoring the situation closely.

PSG is demanding close to 50 million euros for Mbaye, matching the steep price tag Marseille set for Greenwood. Intense interest from cash-rich English clubs ensures the Parisian giants remain firm on their valuation, complicating Roma's search for a winger.
