France defender Benjamin Pavard

Barcelona ‘meet with agents’ of Stuttgart’s Benjamin Pavard

Barcelona have met the representatives of VFB Stuttgart defender and France international Benjamin Pavard, according to Gianluca Di Marzio.

The 22-year-old was a regular in the France side which won the World Cup last summer, scoring a stunning goal against Argentina in the Last 16.

Napoli and Bayern Munich have both been strongly linked with a move for the full-back but this latest report suggest Barca may be ready to swoop.

Stuttgart are struggling in the Bundesliga this season and Pavard, who has been used as part of a back three system, is said to be open to a move away.

Pavard joined the German club in the summer of 2016 from Lille and is the latest in a long line of defenders to be linked with a move to the Camp Nou.
