Bayern could renew Pavard despite rumours of his exit

Bayern Munich are back on track as they have regained the Bundesliga lead and could forget the Champions League elimination if they can lift the trophy.

However, the German side are planning their squad for next season and Benjamin Pavard is one of the priorities of the board. The defender was expected to leave his current club at the end of the season to join Barcelona.

But Bayern sporting director Hasan Salihamidzic confirmed after the victory against Hertha Berlin that the 27-year-old could continue playing at the Allianz Arena.

"We will talk and see how he feels. I have nothing against it. I'm happy that he's with us. Benji is playing a very good second half of the season. He's showing confidence and is doing a very good job overall," he said on 'Abendzeitung Munchen'.
