Olympique de Marseille announced the arrival, on loan with option to buy, of Benjamin Pavard (29 years old). The French international defender arrives from Inter Milan and looks like a very nice blow on the transfer market.
2018 world champion and winner of the League of Nations in 2021 with the Blues, multiple German champion with Bayern Munich, a club with which he won a total of 10 trophies, including 6 in 2010, champion of Italy 2024 with Inter Milan, Benjamin Pavard has a long record like the arm. Which makes Bertrand Latour say that it is a bigger than the arrival of Adrien Rabiot Libre at OM in September 2024!
“For me, it is a blow that is superior to that made last summer to bring Rabiot,” says the journalist on Canal+. You make OM a player who was holder in the Champions League final last season against PSG and who was still holder at Inter Milan when he was available. He is a player who is in the French team, where he has a number of selections. It is a huge blow which also comes to OM not out of spite but by a deep desire. »»
The future will say if Latour is right but Pavard (29) comes to OM to cover the posts of central defender and right side. Leonardo Balerdi and Amir Murillo can worry.
