Overview
- L'Équipe and other outlets report Paris FC have an agreement to buy the 19-year-old for about €25m, beating Manchester United, Newcastle and Serie A suitors.
- The deal is described as sealed for a summer arrival, though neither club has announced it publicly.
- Zabi has logged 21 appearances for Reims this season with two goals and three assists after a €100,000 move around 18 months ago.
- Some reporters attribute Zabi’s choice in part to Jurgen Klopp’s advisory role within the Red Bull-linked Paris FC structure, a claim not officially confirmed.
- Paris FC’s recent Arnault-family investment and a minority Red Bull stake frame the club’s push for young talent.
