Chelsea, known for their aggressive spending strategy, are eyeing two key defensive reinforcements this winter. Alongside Zabarnyi, Benfica defender Tomás Araújo has also been identified as a target.

The push for Zabarnyi’s transfer is reportedly driven by Chelsea head coach Enzo Maresca, who is a keen admirer of the Ukrainian international’s talent. Liverpool have also previously shown interest in the Bournemouth defender, further highlighting his growing reputation.

Zabarnyi, valued at €32 million on Transfermarkt, has been a standout performer in the Premier League and could provide the defensive stability Chelsea are seeking as they aim to strengthen their squad for the second half of the season. The upcoming transfer window could mark another significant chapter in the young defender's career.
