Inter are going big-game hunting in the back and have Benjamin Pavard in their sights to reinforce their rearguard. It’s not the first time they have been linked to the Frenchman. Manchester United are also chasing him this summer, TuttoSport relays.
The Nerazzurri added only Yann Aurel Bisseck to substitute for Milan Skriniar. While the arrival of Juan Cuadrado allows them to use Matteo Darmian in the defensive line more frequently, they are testing the waters for a quality signing.
Inter would have to open up their wallet to sign Pavard. However, the relationship with Bayern Munich is strong. He could be tempted to depart if a team offered him a full-time starting job.
The Nerazzurri wish to close the transfer window with a pricey acquisition after striking out in a pair of deals despite advanced talks. They have shown interest in Giorgio Scalvini on top of the Bavarian staple.
Our Take on Inter and Pavard
He’d be a great addition but, factoring in his price tag, salary, and competition, the costs of the deal could easily get past what they are comfortable spending, especially since he’s not a youngster. He makes €5M per year, which is within their standards for top players, but they have been very careful with their payroll this summer.
