Chelsea 'hold an interest in Bayern Munich defender Benjamin Pavard... but face competition from Juventus and Atletico Madrid' to sign the France World Cup winner

Chelsea are one of a number of European heavyweights interested in signing Benjamin Pavard from Bayern Munich in the summer transfer window.

According to Sky Sports Germany - and reported by Get French Football News - Pavard is wanted by Thomas Tuchel as well as Atletico Madrid and Juventus.

France international Pavard, 26, predominantly plays at right-back but his versatility has seen him fill in across the back line for Bayern in recent seasons.
