Inter have 2 main targets in defence and prepare for Pavard’s sale

Udinese’s Oumar Solet and Loic Badé of Sevilla are reported to be Inter’s main target in defence as the Nerazzurri prepare for Benjamin Pavard’s sale.

Inter are ready to listen to offers for France international Pavard, and according to Gazzetta, the Serie A giants hope to earn a fee between €18m and €20m for the ex-Bayern Munich defender, who has spent two seasons at San Siro.

Inter’s defensive priorities revealed

According to the pink paper, the Nerazzurri have already identified two possible replacements in Udinese’s Solet and Sevilla’s Badé.

Gazzetta claims that Udinese’s asking price for Soulé is around 20m-25m, while Bayer Leverkusen are also interested in Badé.

Inter don’t need to wait for Pavard’s exit

The Pink Paper adds that Inter have enough transfer budget to sign a new defender before selling Pavard, so they don’t need the Frenchman’s exit before signing a replacement.

Galatasaray, Lille and Saudi Side Neom have set their sights on Pavard, who may prioritise a European club ahead of next summer’s World Cup, as admitted by Neom coach Christophe Galtier after a friendly against Roma last week.
