Bournemouth is being dismantled, and Paris is set to sign center-back Zabarnyi, who is valued at €42 million by Transfermarkt.

Premier League teams have strong purchasing capabilities, and some clubs aim to develop players for sale. This summer transfer window, Bournemouth, which had a solid performance in the Premier League last season, is being dismantled, and its entire main defensive line is being emptied. Bournemouth's main center-back Wysokyhas already joined Real Madrid, while the starting left-back Kolkhozhas moved to Liverpool. Now, another key center-back Zabarnyiis also set to be poached by a European giant...

According to the latest news from journalist Abdellah Boulma, 22-year-old Ukrainian center-back Zabarnyi from Bournemouth is about to join the treble winners Paris, with the deal expected to be completed next week.

This summer transfer window, Paris, who won the Champions League, Ligue 1, and the Coupe de France last season and finished as runners-up in the Club World Cup, has been quite quiet. They are currently focused on steady progress, reinforcing positions that need strengthening. In the Club World Cup final, the absence of key center-back Pacho due to suspension and Belardo's inability to handle the pressure led to their loss, making Zabarnyi a significant reinforcement for Paris's defense.

Zabarnyi came through the youth ranks at Dynamo Kyiv and transferred to Bournemouth in January 2023 for a fee of €22.7 million. During his time at Bournemouth, he has made 86 appearances across all competitions, scoring 1 goal and providing 1 assist.

The 22-year-old Zabarnyi stands 1.89 meters tall, is right-footed, and primarily plays as a center-back. His contract with Bournemouth runs until 2029, and he is valued at €42 million by Transfermarkt, making him the highest-valued player in the Bournemouth squad. Last season, Zabarnyi played 36 matches in the Premier League, starting 35 of them, establishing himself as Bournemouth's key center-back. His outstanding performance in the Premier League has attracted Paris's attention, leading to the quiet finalization of this transfer to strengthen their squad as needed.
