Illia Zabarnyi
23-Year-Old
Paris Saint-Germain
Ligue 1
2025 Fantasy Outlook
Zabarnyi had a solid 2024/25 season, marshaling the heart of the Cherries central defense. The regular starter consistently posted sound statistics for interceptions, clearances and tackles, playing his part in the attainment of eight clean sheets. He's a difficult player to get past and his contributions were key to Bournemouth conceding just 44 goals, fifth fewest in the Premier League. Zabarnyi is a natural target for set-piece crosses even if he failed to find the net last season. The Ukrainian international is catching the eye of bigger clubs, but he'll be a regular for the Cherries in 2025/26 if he stays.
Strong defensive performance
Zabarnyi had one shot (zero on goal) in Friday's 1-0 win over AJ Auxerre.
ANALYSIS
Zabarnyi put in a very solid performance, completing 81 of 90 passes while adding one tackle and one block. Because Paris Saint-Germain typically dominate possession, he is not asked to make as many tackles as center backs on other teams, but his defensive work rate still stands out with 70 recoveries this season, a high total among Ligue 1 defenders. On the ball, he has completed 1,101 successful passes, further cementing his role as a key figure in PSG's buildup and defensive structure. PSG have conceded just 15 goals in 19 league matches, and Zabarnyi has been a major reason for that. They next face Strasbourg, who sit seventh in the table, making it a slightly tougher test but one PSG should be well equipped to handle.

ANALYSIS
The reigning UCL champions are keen on signing the Ukraine defender, who's under contract at Bournemouth, but both parties have yet to reach an agreement. The French club has submitted a second offer for the center-back that totals £55 million, but the Cherries value the Ukraine international, who's only 22 years old, in excess of £70 million.
