Illia Zabarnyi Set for PSG After Bournemouth Deal
Illia Zabarnyi Set for PSG Move After Bournemouth Agreement. Paris Saint-Germain are on the brink of completing the signing of Illia Zabarnyi from Bournemouth. All documents between the both clubs have been finalized, and Zabarnyi has already bid farewell to his Bournemouth teammates. The 22-year-old Ukrainian defender will be traveling to Paris tonight, where he is expected to undergo his medical before putting pen to paper on his PSG contract.
Zabarnyi, who joined Bournemouth from Dynamo Kyiv in January 2023, quickly became an important figure in the Premier League side’s defense.The talented young center-back has attracted interest from several top European clubs. PSG, eager to strengthen their defensive options ahead of the new season, have moved swiftly to secure his services.
This move aligns with PSG’s strategy of blending experienced stars with emerging talents to maintain dominance in Ligue 1 and compete strongly in the UEFA Champions League. Zabarnyi’s versatility in playing across the backline will be a valuable asset for manager Luis Enrique, especially with the club facing a congested fixture schedule.
For Bournemouth, losing a player of Zabarnyi’s caliber is a significant blow, but the transfer is believed to be a lucrative deal that could allow them to reinvest in other areas of the squad. Zabarnyi’s departure marks the end of a short yet impactful spell at the Vitality Stadium, where he earned praise for his defensive consistency and professionalism.
With his medical scheduled for tonight, the official announcement from PSG is expected soon.
