Whilst the transfer window has now slammed shut in France, one club is still active, Paris FC. As per a report from L’Équipe, Les Parisiens have secured the signing of Stade de Reims midfielder Patrick Zabi (19), who had been attracting high-level interest from clubs across Europe.
In the final hours of the window, Paris FC confirmed the signing of Rudy Matondo from AJ Auxerre, a sign that the newly-moneyed club are looking towards the future. Zabi is also a player for the future and he will arrive at the club in the summer for a fee of €25m, L’Équipe understands.
This season, Zabi has played 21 times for Les Stadistes, scoring two goals and registering three assists. However, he will move on in the summer, with Reims pocketing a huge profit on a player that they signed for just €100,000 18 months ago.
Paris FC have beaten the likes of Manchester United, Newcastle United, Bournemouth, AC Milan, Inter Milan, and Fiorentina to his signature. Zabi’s move to Paris FC has not yet been made official, but it is thought to be just a matter of time.
