Pavard getting further away from Barca

Benjamin Pavard is getting closer to renewing with Bayern Munich. That means that the Frenchman, who was pipped to become Barcelona's new right-back, is looking less and less likely to go to the Camp Nou.

That's what Bayern Munich's sporting director Hasan Salihamidzic confirmed to 'Kicker': "We'd love to keep Pavard. Currently, we're talking to him and his agent about extending his contract".

Benjamin Pavard's contract at Bayern ends in 2024, and Barcelona were following him as they are currently very switched on with everyone's situations in the market ahead of the summer.

Xavi is sure he wants to sign a right-back. However, Villarreal's high asking price for Juan Foyth, as well as the complexity of Joao Cancelo and his situation between Bayern and City.
