Zabarnyi Struggles, PSG Move to Sign His Replacement

PSG are gearing up for a turbulent winter transfer window at centre-back. Signed for €66M, Ilya Zabarnyi has disappointed so far, failing to convince either with his solidity or his maturity. The situation has pushed Luis Enrique to urgently request an experienced defender who can slot into his demanding system right away.

Will Zabarnyi become PSG’s next expensive disaster? Signed for a hefty fee, the Ukrainian defender has struggled badly in his early months in Paris. The club says it will give its new signings time to settle in, especially given the unique pressure surrounding PSG — but that doesn’t mean they won’t strengthen the position. Quite the opposite.

€30M for Mario Gila

According to the Spanish press, the coach has identified Mario Gila (Lazio), 25, as his top target. The former Real Madrid academy product is performing well, versatile, and attracting interest from several major European clubs including Real Madrid, Inter and AC Milan — making the race intense.

Good news for PSG: Lazio, open to selling, have reportedly lowered their asking price to €30M — far more manageable for Paris. Enough to accelerate what has now become a priority signing for Luis Enrique, as Zabarnyi’s transfer already looks like a major misstep.
