Illia Zabarnyi
22-Year-Old
AFC Bournemouth
Premier
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.
Assist in victory over Foxes
Zabarnyi assisted once to go with one shot (not on goal) and one chance created in Sunday's 2-0 win over Leicester City.
ANALYSIS
Zarbarnyi produced the type of solid performance Sunday that we have been used to seeing from him all season. In defense he executed three clearances, two interceptions and a tackle, and won seven of the nine duels he engaged in. He also managed to attain his first assist of the season. From 36 appearances (35 starts) he has contributed to eight clean sheets.

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.
