Paris Saint-Germain has initiated club-to-club discussions with Bournemouth regarding the transfer of defender Ilya Zabarny. According to reports, Luis Campos, the Paris-based club’s sporting director, has been tracking Zabarny’s progress for several years and is now actively pursuing his signature. Zabarny is a centre-back, and his style of play has caught the attention of Campos. The Ukrainian international has previously played for Dynamo Kyiv before joining Bournemouth.
The talks between the two clubs indicate that PSG is keen on securing Zabarny’s services, but Bournemouth’s stance on the matter remains uncertain. “There are two more options on PSG’s shortlist for a new centre-back in case AFCB refuse to sell Ilya,” as reported. This suggests that PSG has identified alternative targets to bolster their defence in the event that Bournemouth decline their offer. With according to the source, Campos is driving the efforts to sign Zabarny.
