Tottenham Hotspur have officially contacted Inter Milan over a potential Deadline Day transfer for French international Benjamin Pavard.
The 29-year-old versatile defender, who can operate both at centre-back and right-back, is eager to secure regular first-team football ahead of the 2026 World Cup in the United States, Canada, and Mexico.
According to sources close to the situation, Pavard’s future is one to closely monitor in the coming hours as Spurs ramp up their pursuit.
Benjamin Pavard to Tottenham or Manchester United?
Pavard is open to leaving Inter, and sources have suggested the Premier League could be a serious option for him.
One source told us: “Spurs have made official contact with Inter Milan to ask about Benjamin Pavard. They want to strengthen their squad and see Pavard as a good option. Inter have considered Pavard a sellable player since the start of the summer.”
This was confirmed by another source, who added: “Manchester United, Barcelona, and Olympique Marseille are also interested in Pavard.”
It now depends on how much Inter will demand to let the France international go, and if Spurs or anyone else will be willing to pay it.
Do Spurs and United need Pavard?
Pavard can give top clubs like Spurs and United some good depth in defence due to his versatility, but it’s not guaranteed that he’d play regularly for them.
Although Pavard looked like an outstanding talent when he first broke through as a youngster, he’s gone a little downhill in recent years.
Inter probably wouldn’t be too fussed about losing the player, so it remains to be seen if this is really something THFC and MUFC should be prioritising for the end of the window.
