Bundesliga Giants Dortmund & Leipzig Enter Race For Inter Milan Owned Defender After Difficult Spell With Marseille | OneFootball

Benjamin Pavard could leave Inter Milan again this summer after a difficult spell on loan at Marseille.

The French club appear unlikely to exercise their option to keep the defender, despite initial confidence surrounding the move.

As a result, Pavard is expected to return to Milan at the end of the season, as per L’Interista.

However, a second Nerazzurri chapter looks improbable.

The defender failed to leave a strong impression in France and struggled to build a connection with supporters, despite his proven pedigree at the highest level.

Pavard still commands respect across Europe.

He remains in his prime and built an excellent reputation during his time at Bayern Munich, while Inter fans retain strong affection for the French international.

Now, the Bundesliga could offer him a fresh opportunity.

Reports indicate that Borussia Dortmund and RB Leipzig have requested information about the defender’s availability.

Both clubs are exploring a potential loan deal with a conditional purchase option.
