Manchester United has been working extremely hard in the final days of the transfer window as we weigh all options. One of them was Benjamin Pavard, who rejected the advances of the English – we read in L’Equipe.
The team of “Red Devils” certainly requires many more reinforcements. Unsuccessful transfers, neglecting certain positions meant that this one does not meet the highest standards of the Premier League, which the club’s activists know well.
The Old Trafford team is fighting against time. The transfer window expires on September 1, which only increases the pressure of MU.
It seems that at the moment the sixth strength of the previous campaign of the English Premier League is focusing most of its forces on the engagement of Antony from Ajax, offering up to 100 million euros for his card. In the background, there are also figures such as Cody Gakpo and Marco Asensio.
According to “L’Equipe”, the club from Stretford until recently tried to get Benjamin Pavard from Bayern Munich.
It was speculated in early summer that Matthijs de Ligt’s arrival in Bavaria’s capital would directly affect the 26-year-old. The French was therefore associated with the departure, interest in him was expressed by Chelsea, Juventus and Atlético Madrid. The defender himself struggled with some doubts about his future at Allianz Arena.
It was Manchester who tried to take advantage of this situation, even initiating preliminary talks with the defender’s surroundings on this matter. These quickly collapsed, as Pavard decided to stay in Bayern after a second thought, counting on a certain place in the squad.
The “Red Devils” are therefore forced to choose a different defensive option for their target. They are reportedly interested in Thomas Meunier and Sergiño Dest.
