Benjamin Pavard has made it clear that he wants to join Barcelona.

The Bayern Munich defender is expected to be available for transfer in the summer, especially if the German champions sign Manchester City's Joao Cancelo on a permanent basis.



Barcelona is eager for a right back, and Pavard would most certainly fit the bill.
However, there have been rumors that the 26-year-old would like to play in central defense, as he did at Stuttgart before joining Bayern, rather than on the right, which would be inconvenient for Barcelona head coach Xavi Hernandez.


Nonetheless, Barcelona is likely to consider the idea of Pavard moving to Catalonia in the summer, although they will encounter competition. According to reports, Pavard turned down a transfer to Inter Milan in January in order to remain available for Barça, but MD think the Italian powerhouses will make another attempt to sign the Frenchman in the summer.

If Inter were to sign Pavard, they would probably play him as a center back, which might give them the edge over Barcelona in the battle for the defender's services.

#Isco set for Premier League move after Union Berlin breakdown

Despite having been a free agent for the entirety of January, former Real Madrid midfielder Isco still remains without a club. The 30-year-old had a disastrous spell at Sevilla earlier this season, and left the Andalusian club by mutual consent in December.

A multitude of clubs across Europe had expressed an interest in Isco, but it was only at the end of January that he finally looked like joining a new club. High flying Bundesliga side Union Berlin agreed terms with the Spanish international, but the deal sensationally collapsed at the final hurdle.

This has meant that Isco’s search for a new club continues, and the Premier League could be a possible destination. The Times, as per Fichajes, report that Everton have contacted the player’s representatives over a move. The Toffees are in dire straits and sit inside the relegation zone, and there is a hope that Isco could be a catalyst to help improve their fortunes.

Isco will be desperate to play competitive football again, and Everton could be the team to give him that opportunity.
