Lyon, Paris FC and Bournemouth amongst candidates to sign Gent’s Ibrahima Cissé

Lyon, Paris FC and Bournemouth amongst candidates to sign Gent’s Ibrahima Cissé Olympique Lyonnais, Paris FC and AFC Bournemouth are reportedly among the clubs interested in signing KAA Gent’s Ibrahima Cissé (18), according to Foot Mercato . The young striker, who is in high demand, is also said to be on the radar of numerous other foreign clubs. Having arrived in Belgium from the Senegalese club CO Thiessois in October 2025, the imposing 1.96-metre centre-forward quickly made a name for himself in the Flemish side’s reserve team. So much so that he was given his first professional appearance for Rik De Mil’s team as early as March. It proved to be a winning gamble for the Belgian manager, who saw his protégé net his first goal on the occasion. Though he has not scored any further goals as yet, Cissé has nevertheless racked up 12 appearances for the Buffalos, who are now demanding a fee of €15m to agree to part with their rising star, who is under contract with the club until 2028.
