Inter Milan Targets Bayern Munich Defenders in Summer Swoop
24 Aug
Summary
- Inter Milan interested in Bayern Munich's Kim Min-jae and Dayot Upamecano
- Defender Benjamin Pavard's future at Inter uncertain amid Galatasaray and Saudi interest
- Inter may add a new center-back regardless of Pavard's potential departure
As of August 24th, 2025, Inter Milan is actively exploring the possibility of signing Bayern Munich defenders Kim Min-jae and Dayot Upamecano to bolster their backline. The Nerazzurri are still in the market for defensive reinforcements ahead of the upcoming 2025-26 Serie A season.
The Italian giants have reportedly sounded out the availability of both center-backs, with the future of Benjamin Pavard also being a point of interest. Pavard, who joined Inter from Bayern Munich in 2023, helped the club win the Serie A title in his debut season. However, his future at San Siro remains uncertain, as Galatasaray and a Saudi Arabian side, Neom, have expressed interest in acquiring the French international.
If Pavard stays, Inter are said to prefer Upamecano over Kim, as the Frenchman's contract expires in June 2026, making him a more affordable option compared to the former Napoli defender. Nonetheless, the Nerazzurri are determined to add a new center-back to their squad, regardless of Pavard's potential departure in the final week of the summer transfer window.
