Real Madrid have seen an approach rejected by Stuttgart for France defender Benjamin Pavard, according to reports.
Pavard, 22, was a key figure at right-back for Les Bleus when they lifted World Cup 2018. Such fine form saw rumours emerge in the aftermath that a deal had been agreed to join Bundesliga giants Bayern Munich in summer 2019, only for the player to recently reject this stance.
Sport Bild stated that Los Blancos have joined the queue of interested clubs, but their initial overtures were knocked back.
Pavard has scored once in 14 appearances for France – a screamer against Argentina in this summer’s round of 16.
