Zabarnyi’s first words as a PSG player

Ilya Zabarnyi, the 22-year-old former central defender from Ukraine, has joined Paris Saint-Germain from Bournemouth. The deal took some time to finalize, but he is indeed a Parisian now. He shared a few initial words upon signing.

“I am very happy to join Paris Saint-Germain, the best club in the world, with the best project. I am here to give everything I have on the field and I am eager to make my debut and meet the fans.”

It makes sense, Zabarnyi is happy to arrive in Paris. He had to be patient, as the negotiation was terribly long. But he can finally embark on this adventure, full of desire and ambition.
