Premier League giants Manchester United are reportedly eyeing a move for Bayern Munich defender Benjamin Pavard this summer.
Erik ten Hag wants Manchester United to get Pavard this summer
Manchester United are reportedly looking to bolster their defense in light of Harry Maguire’s imminent exit. It is believed that West Ham United have tabled a $38.26 million offer for the England defender, which the Mancunians have decided to accept. Talks are still to be had on the player side, but United are confident that an agreement would be reached.
Amid Maguire’s exit rumors, French outlet L’Equipe has claimed that the Red Devils are already eyeing a replacement. Bayern‘s Pavard, Nice’s Jean-Clair Todibo, and Bayer Leverkusen’s Edmond Tapsoba are said to be the top three names on United’s shortlist.
Although all three players are more than capable of filling in for Maguire, Pavard is Ten Hag’s undisputed choice. The Dutch mastermind has reportedly asked his club to open talks with Bayern and complete the deal before the transfer window shuts on September 1.
