Marseille is strengthening its defense.

Details: Reportedly, 29-year-old Benjamin Pavard from Inter Milan is set to join Marseille on loan, as confirmed by Fabrizio Romano on social media.

Marseille will pay Pavard’s salary for the season, and they have the option to buy him for €15 million afterward, though this is not obligatory.

Romano mentioned that all terms are agreed, and the player will undergo a medical check before the official announcement of the transfer.

Pavard started his professional career in Ligue 1 with Lille from 2014 to 2016 before moving to Stuttgart for €5 million, leading to a successful time at Bayern Munich, where he won numerous titles including the 2018 World Cup with France. His current market value is estimated at €25 million.
