It was previously reported that Mamoudou Mbake Fall will become the second high-profile player to leave Barcelona in this winter transfer window after Pedro Fernandez Dro.
De Deiro’s earlier decision to leave the club shocked the whole of Barcelona, with PSG now in pole position to secure his services for €6 million.

Mbacke appears to be next, with the young defender leaving Barcelona after joining the club permanently in 2024 for €2 million.
Earlier reports suggested that Mbacke was ready to move to MLS despite receiving offers from Spanish and Italian second division clubs. But it looks like we now know the player’s potential destination.
Mbacke set to move to St. Louis City
According to the latest report from “Diario SPORT”, Mbacke will permanently join Major League Soccer club St. Louis City.
The report adds that Mbacke has passed his medical in Barcelona and the news could be officially announced within hours.
Barcelona will recoup part of its €2 million investment in Mbacke in 2024, but the exact amount of the deal has not been disclosed.

In St. Louis, Mamadou Mbak-Fal could pair up with his namesake Farlow Fall on defense, although he will face competition from the likes of Timo Baumgarter, Joshua Yarrow and Kyle Hibbert.
St. Louis City, one of the smaller teams in Major League Soccer, doesn’t particularly boast the services of its star players. However, they do have former Borussia Dortmund goalkeeper Roman Burki as captain.
Mbacke, on the other hand, enjoys high recognition in Major League Soccer (MLS), having initially joined Barcelona from the Los Angeles Galaxy.
