PSG Seal €67m Deal for Luis Enrique’s Target, Clearing Path for Bournemouth Move

Paris Saint Germain look set to complete the signing of Illia Zabarnyi from Bournemouth, allowing the Premier League club to make a move for his replacement.

According to transfer guru Fabrizio Romano, Zabarnyi, 22, will finally become a PSG player for a fee of around €67 million.

The Ukraine international will put pen to paper on a five-year deal with the European champions, keeping him at the Parc des Princes until 2030.

Bournemouth have now lost two of the best centre-back prospects in the Premier League, with Dean Huijsen also leaving earlier in the summer.

Andoni Iraola have wasted no time in finding a replacement, however, with reports suggesting they will try to sign Lille's Bafode Diakite.

The Cherries previously walked away from signing the 335 million-rated defender but are now looking to re-enter negotiations.
