The "bees" as they are otherwise known see a secure future in Zabel. Even comparing him for his style and physicality and the way he plays with the English defender, John Stones, who is currently part of Manchester City, they consider him one of the best in the world in his role.
Zabeli thus joins Armando Broja, becoming the second Albanian to play in the English football elite. He is also a part of the Albanian National Team as he counts 9 appearances with chain teams, while now he is expected to be the main link of the U-21 National Team.
