Benjamin Pavard may be allowed to leave Bayern Munich during the current summer transfer window, following talks between the defender's camp and the Bundesliga giants over his future. Chelsea, Atletico Madrid, and Juventus have all expressed interest in the 26-year-old defender.
Benjamin joined the Bavarians in the summer of 2019 from fellow Bundesliga club Stuttgart, a year after winning the World Cup with France. Pavard has since become a permanent fixture on Die Roten's right flank, appearing in 119 games and contributing five goals and 11 assists.
During his time at Bayern Munich, the France international won three Bundesliga titles as well as the UCL trophy. However, with the signing of Noussair Mazraoui from Ajax this summer, the French defender's place in the team is under threat, and a split could be on the cards.
Several top teams in Europe are keeping an eye on the Frenchman's situation, with the Blues among them. This summer, the Blues are overseeing a massive defensive overhaul. Chelsea are expected to sign at least two new centre-backs after losing Rudiger and Christensen to free agency.
With Alonso also on his way out, a new left-back is likely, while a new right-back is also possible. The former Stuttgart defender's contract with the German club expires in two years, and the Bavarians could demand a high fee for his services.

Cristiano Ronaldo has finally broken his social media silence after reports that he has been dealing with personal issues in recent weeks, as speculation about his Manchester United exit continues.
Ronaldo has reportedly been dealing with personal issues in recent weeks and has been given extra time away from United's preseason squad.
Last season, the striker was United's top performer and was named the club's player of the year.
However, the striker wishes to continue playing at the highest level and is said to have told United to accept any reasonable offer that comes in this summer.
His agent, Jorge Mendes, had offered him to a number of European behemoths, some of whom had already turned him down.
Ronaldo had been silent on social media for some time, as he had been with his family dealing with issues close to him personally.
Ronaldo, on the other hand, reappeared on social media on Thursday, posting a workout photo to his millions of Twitter and Instagram followers.
United fans are already speculating that Ronaldo appears to be wearing United branded shorts in the social media image.
