PSG seal €66m deal for Bournemouth defender Illia Zabarnyi

The 22-year-old will become PSG's second major summer signing after goalkeeper Lucas Chevalier joined from Lille, as the French champions step up their squad building ahead of the new season.
L'Equipe reports that Zabarnyi will sign a five-year contract worth a net €4.5 million in his first year, while RMC Sport claims the formalities could be completed as early as Monday.
PSG will pay Bournemouth €63 million plus €3 million in add-ons for the defender, who was born in Kyiv in 2002 and came through Dynamo Kyiv's academy.
A full international since 2020, Zabarnyi has 49 caps for Ukraine and was part of Dynamo's 2021 league-winning side. He moved to Bournemouth in January 2023 on a deal that ran until 2029.
He featured throughout the Cherries' pre-season, including their recent match against West Ham in Atlanta, but was left out of the squad for Saturday's friendly against Real Sociedad amid ongoing negotiations.
The move strengthens PSG's central defence as they prepare to defend both their Ligue 1 crown and Champions League title.
It follows Friday's agreement for Chevalier's arrival, with transfer specialist Fabrizio Romano confirming that "all documents have been signed and finalised" for both deals.
Both players could make their debuts as early as Wednesday in the Super Cup against Tottenham, before PSG begin their Ligue 1 campaign at Nantes on Sunday.
PSG also added to their goalkeeping ranks last month with the signing of 19-year-old Renato Marin from Roma's academy.
