Sport Mediaset via Fcinter1908 confirms Lille’s interest in Benjamin Pavard: Inter Milan have already made the first inquiry for his replacement

According to Footmercato, Lille have set their sights on Benjamin Pavard.

The French defender does not seem untouchable and, in the event of a suitable offer, Inter Milan could decide to let him go. 

“The twenty-time Italian champions have identified Benjamin Pavard as the centre-back who could be sacrificed, and a French club, Lille, could assist sporting director Ausilio’s moves. 

At Viale della Liberazione they are expecting a suitable bid: no barricades will be raised, also in light of the 5 million euros (£4.2 million) salary Inter Milan must guarantee until 2028 to the 1996-born player, who was not flawless last season under Inzaghi,” reads Sport Mediaset.

Inter Milan make first move for Solet after Lille’s Pavard approach

But Inter Milan are already working on a potential replacement, with an initial inquiry already made: “On the list of possible replacements for Pavard stands out the name of Omar Solet, who impressed at Udinese last season. 

The Nerazzurri have made a first approach for the 25-year-old, who signed with the Friuli side last January after his time with Salzburg. His valuation is around 20 million euros (£16.8 million),” Sport Mediaset concludes.
