Pavard, a right-back and central defender, plays for BayernWalker open to move but clubs remain in talks over a deal
Manchester City have made Bayern Munich’s Benjamin Pavard their number-one target if Kyle Walker joins the German champions. Walker has given Bayern approval to advance negotiations but a contract has not been finalised and talks over a deal are continuing between the clubs.
Walker, who has one year on his contract, is open to playing outside England for the first time. The 33-year-old is admired by Bayern’s manager, Thomas Tuchel, and was not always a first-choice pick for Pep Guardiola last season. He had a spell in March and April when he was left out of the first XI and was then a substitute in the Champions League final.
