Pavard's contract with the perennial Bundesliga champions expires in two years, which might put the club in a bind if he does not agree to new terms. Blues manager Thomas Tuchel, who is looking for new faces in defense, is said to enjoy the 26-year-old's versatility across the backline. Chelsea may have to compete with Manchester United for his talents, according to Sport 1, as both teams have been offered the chance to sign the defender by his agent Joseph Mohan.
