Ibrahim Mbaye makes Ligue 1 mark in rare PSG start

Ibrahim Mbaye seized a rare opportunity to impress by scoring in Paris Saint‑Germain’s 2–2 draw with Lorient, a goal that also secured him a place in the club’s record books.

The young forward has not featured regularly in recent weeks, but he needed only one big moment to underline his potential and remind everyone of his quality.

His strike was his third Ligue 1 goal for PSG, a return that now makes him the fourth‑highest scorer in the French top flight for the club among players under the age of 19, according to Stats du Foot.

Mbaye sits just behind Warren Zaïre‑Emery and Bartholomew Ogbeche, who have five league goals each before turning 19, while Kylian Mbappé tops the list with seven.

For a teenager still fighting for minutes in a star‑studded squad, this latest milestone strengthens his claim for more trust from the coaching staff. Even in a frustrating spell without much game time, Mbaye’s productivity in front of goal shows he can contribute whenever he is called upon.
