Arsenal interested in a January swoop for Illia Zabarnyi

Already putting together their preparations ahead of the January transfer window, Arsenal are reportedly keeping close tabs on PSG defender Illia Zabarnyi, according to Ekrem Konur. While the Gunners might have welcomed England international Ezri Konsa to the Emirates in a reported £55million deal last month, the reigning Premier League champions are keen on adding further defensive reinforcements. With William Saliba yet to make a single appearance since opening up the 2026/27 campaign and not expected to feature until December due to an extended back injury, the Gunners are keen on further strengthening when the transfer window reopens in the New Year. However, while fellow Premier League heavyweights Manchester United and Liverpool might reportedly also be keen on a potential January swoop for the Ukrainian international, Konur is suggesting that PSG will be demanding a hefty fee. Despite still waiting to make a maiden Ligue 1 appearance this season, it has been reported that the reigning European champions would be demanding a fee in the region of €67million. While the former Bournemouth star might have only arrived in Paris last summer following a blockbuster £57million move from the Cherries, Zabarnyi has drastically failed to hold down a regular spot in the French capital. Although the 24-year-old might still have four years remaining on his current deal with Luis Enrique’s side, Arsenal are keen on offering the one-time Dynamo Kyiv youngster an immediate Premier League return in January. #PSG Rumors suggested Illia Zabarnyi could leave last summer, but he stayed at PSG.

Aston Villa sack Arroyo following winless WSL start

Aston Villa have sacked manager Natalia Arroyo following their winless start to the Women's Super League season. Villa sit 13th in the 14-team table after four games, having played out two draws and two defeats. Things started promisingly as they held title favourites Chelsea to a 1-1 draw on the opening matchday, but a pair of heavy defeats to Manchester City (1-4) and Tottenham (0-4), either side of another 1-1 draw at Brighton, have left them marooned in the relegation play-off spot. And on Tuesday, Villa confirmed Arroyo had been relieved of her duties, with women's technical advisor Brian Sorensen taking charge until a permanent successor is found. Aston Villa Women can confirm that the club has parted company with Natalia Arroyo last night. https://t.co/35sCCiPF26 pic.twitter.com/DSAMXTeT2J — Aston Villa Women (@AVWFCOfficial) September 29, 2026 The club said: "Everyone at Aston Villa would like to thank Natalia for her efforts and wish her all the best in her future endeavours." Arroyo, who previously coached Real Sociedad for four years, took the reins in January 2025 and oversaw a strong end to that season, with Villa finishing sixth after being discussed as potential relegation candidates. Villa then finished ninth in 2025-26 and failed to kick on at the start of the current campaign, despite making nine new signings in a busy transfer window.

Debutants will face Australia and All Blacks and full-back Paul Altier admits he and his teammates are more used to ‘watching it as fans’This time next year the Rugby World Cup will be looming large. Australia’s big party kicks off on 1 October 2027 when the host nation will be intent on replicating the feelgood factor generated by their eventful 42-38 win against the world champion Springboks on Sunday. If the Wallabies can maintain their improvement under Les Kiss, the levels of local interest will rise exponentially.A resurgent Australia could also have significant implications for England, their potential quarter-final opponents, as well as New Zealand. Should the Wallabies somehow find a way past the All Blacks in Sydney on the second weekend of the pool stages it would catapult the Kiwis into England’s side of the draw and rip up a lot of advance calculations.This is an extract from our weekly rugby union email, the Breakdown.
