FFP rules could prevent Pavard deal

Meanwhile, Barcelona’s wish to sign out-of-favour Bayern Munich defender Benjamin Pavard stands a big risk of not materializing due to financial fair play rules, Tribuna reports.

The 26-year-old is currently valued at €35m which means Barcelona cannot afford to sign the Fench player based on La Liga FFP restrictions.

Pavard only recently offered himself to Barcelona as he wishes to leave the Bundesliga club after falling down the pecking order at Allianz Arena.
