Yesterday, we reported (via Gazzetta) that the Red Devils had offered more than the asking amount to capture Bayern Munich midfielder Benjamin Pavard.
According to Alfredo Pedulla, the French international is closing in on a summer transfer to Inter Milan.
Pavard has reached an agreement with the Nerazzurri to complete his move before the deadline, according to the Italian journalist.
In terms of the transfer fee, Pedulla claims that speculations of a 40 million euro asking price are absolutely incorrect.
The Serie A heavyweights have offered a total deal of 30 million euros (£26 million) plus add-ons, and Bayern could accept the bid knowing that the player has already committed to move to Italy.
Inter Milan is confident in delivering Pavard to manager Simone Inzaghi and hopes to complete the transaction by tomorrow.
The 27-year-old, who won the Globe Cup with France in 2018 and every major trophy with Bayern Munich, possesses the quality and experience to strengthen any backline in the globe.
His ability to play effectively at both the right-back and central defender positions would ease Old Trafford’s present defensive quandary.
However, it appears Pavard will eventually finalize a move to the San Siro before the transfer window closes.
