Benjamin Pavard future under intense speculation amid Liverpool inquiry

Benjamin Pavard and his future at Bayern Munich is generating intense speculation. Following the recent hierarchical sackings at the club, uncertainty surrounds Pavard’s situation despite their Bundesliga triumph.

That is as per The Mirror. Last week, Kicker via ECHO revealed that Liverpool had shown interest in the World Cup winner, along with Real Madrid.

The report suggests that Bayern Munich would prefer to retain Benjamin Pavard, but with his contract set to expire next season, elite clubs are circling for his signature. Apparently, during the January transfer window, Inter Milan made an offer for Pavard, and now Liverpool has joined the list of clubs inquiring about the French defender.

Pavard joined Bayern Munich from Stuttgart in 2019 and has since established himself as a key player in their squad. His versatility, having excelled as both a right-back and centre-back, has made him an attractive target for several clubs, including Liverpool.

Pavard to the Reds?

For the Reds, adding Pavard to their ranks would significantly bolster their defensive options. With his experience and World Cup-winning pedigree, Pavard could provide valuable depth and quality to Jurgen Klopp’s side.

With the Reds taking up a new style of play with inverted full-backs, Pavard’s experience of playing both, centre-back and right-back could help accommodate Trent Alexander-Arnold in midfield from where the Scouser’s attacking prowess could stand exploited to the team’s best.

In the coming weeks, Liverpool’s management will likely assess their options and evaluate the feasibility of pursuing Pavard. The final decision will depend on various factors, including Bayern Munich’s stance, the player’s desire for a new challenge, and the financial aspects involved.

As the summer transfer window unfolds, Liverpool supporters will eagerly anticipate updates on their club’s pursuit of Pavard and other targets as well.
