Manchester City are eyeing Bayern Munich’s Benjamin Pavard to replace Kyle Walker. Earlier Pavard has been a target of Manchester United.

He has made 162 appearances and has won four consecutive Bundesliga titles and the Champions League 2020. He is left with only one year of contract and can play as a right-back or centre-back and it suits Guardiola’s formation. Manchester United and Barcelona have shown interest in him. Manchester City have also signed Mateo Kovacic from Chelsea and they want to take centre-back Josko Gvardiol from RB Leipzig. Pavard made his football debut with Lillee in League 1 and then moved to VfB Stuttgart in 2016. He won two Bundesliga trophies in the first season and moved to Bayern Munich in 2019.
