The transfer window does not officially open until June 1, but EFL teams are getting their business in order ahead of the start of next month in regards to players they want to bring in.

And whilst some do not know yet what division they are going to be in, including one of the interested parties when it comes to Ibrahim's services, they are considering a move for the 20-year-old's services.

FLW has been told that four current League One sides are considering a move for midfielder Ibrahim this summer, following an impressive stint on loan with Crawley Town in League One last season.

Charlton Athletic - who are set to contest the third tier play-off final this weekend against Leyton Orient - are one of those teams, and they are joined in the running by recently relegated Plymouth Argyle, as well as both Peterborough United and Bolton Wanderers.

A former England youth international at under-18's level when he was on the books at Arsenal, 20-year-old Ibrahim started regularly for Crawley in 2024-25, both under Scott Lindsey in his two stints in charge, as well as Rob Elliott who was the manager in-between.

Appearing 37 times in all competitions, Ibrahim scored twice for the Red Devils, one of which won the club's Goal of the Season award for a stunning long-range strike against Wrexham.

A combative midfield presence, Ibrahim also received 15 yellow cards over the course of the League One campaign, whilst completing 2.5 tackles per match, ranking fifth in the entire league for that stat per 90 minutes.

Having spent seven years within Arsenal's youth setup after moving from QPR, Ibrahim departed the Gunners for pastures new in February 2024, joining Hertha Berlin on a three-and-a-half year contract.

Ibrahim is yet to play for Hertha's first-team, initially going into their B team setup upon arrival in Germany in the Regionalliga Northeast, where he played 11 times in the final few months of the 2023-24 season.

It could be an exit for Ibrahim though after a year-and-a-half contracted to the club in the German capital, with potential first-team football in League One on the horizon - or perhaps the Championship if Charlton are promoted and want the youngster to come into the fold at The Valley.
