Inter Milan fuming as Harry Maguire situation blocks Benjamin Pavard transfer

Inter Milan are fuming at Bayern Munich, who they accuse of raising Benjamin Pavard’s price due to Manchester United’s intervention.

Pavard, who can play both centre back and right back, is unsettled at the Bundesliga giants and was said to be subject of a bid from United, although this was denied by other reports.

United saw him as a replacement for Harry Maguire, who looked set to be joining West Ham after the two clubs agreed a £30 million (€35m) fee.

However, that deal broke down amidst reports that Maguire wanted to go to a bigger club and that he wanted to be compensated by United for the drop in wages he would have to take on the two-year remainder of his contract, said to be around £7 million.
