After the overall disappointing season, the FC Bayern Munich squad will experience many a change – even unintentionally. It is possible that the German record champions will be forced to give up a top performer in the summer.
Will the Bundesliga game at 1. FC Köln on Saturday (3:30 p.m.) be the last for defender Benjamin Pavard in a Bayern shirt? According to the “kicker”, this seems to be a very realistic scenario.
The German record champions would like to extend the French national player, as sporting director Hasan Salihamidzic recently publicly stated. However, the interested parties who want to venture into the transfer market in the summer are well known.
According to the specialist magazine, FC Barcelona, Real Madrid and Inter Milan have already been traded as possible buyers for Pavard in the past few months. According to the specialist magazine, Manchester United and FC Liverpool are now also considering a commitment. In England, people are enthusiastic about Pavard’s versatility, and the clubs mentioned would have noticed that the 27-year-old was one of the most consistent defenders in a disappointing Bayern season. Real and United are said to have sent an initial request to Munich, according to the “kicker”.
FC Bayern: extension or sale in the Pavard case?
Obviously, the Frenchman’s contract situation also arouses desires. Pavard’s working paper in Munich is only dated until 2024. For FC Bayern, this means: either the contract will be extended in the near future or the paths will separate in the coming transfer phase. Only then will the club receive a transfer fee for the player that is in line with the market.
However, Pavard himself has not yet made a decision, the report goes on to say. After the last matchday in the Bundesliga, however, he will take a closer look at his own future. In the course of the season that was about to end, however, he publicly stated several times that he could definitely imagine a move to a top European club.
