Benjamin Pavard is a versatile 29-year-old defender who can play centre-back or right-back and wants regular first-team football ahead of the 2026 World Cup. Tottenham have made official contact with Inter Milan and are stepping up efforts to sign him on Deadline Day. Manchester United, Barcelona, and Olympique Marseille have also shown interest. Inter have considered Pavard a sellable player since the start of the summer, so any move will depend on Inter's asking price and whether suitors are willing to meet it. Pavard could provide defensive depth but may not be guaranteed regular starts given recent form.
