Barcelona is interested in the Benfica star, and the Croatian striker could profit

Spanish media close to the Catalans report that the club is seriously interested in signing Pavlidis, who scored 30 goals and assisted six times in 53 appearances last season. Benfica is aware that there are gems in him and they are not ready to let him go just like that. They will agree to the transfer only if they receive an offer that they consider sufficient. According to Mundo Deportivo, the Portuguese club demanded 40 million euros from Juventus, and it would be equally necessary for Barcelona to start negotiations.

If Pavlidis were to leave Benfica, Franjo Ivanovi would benefit the most. who failed to establish himself as a standard first team player last season. However, this summer the Croat had additional competition, the Colombian national team player Jhon Duran, who came on loan from Al Nassr.

If Pavlidis decides to continue his career in Barcelona, it could change everything. Ivanović would thus be left without a main competitor in the attack, and Duran would be a serious option alongside the young Anisio Cabral. The Portuguese media reports that in that case, Ivanović got more opportunities to play međ in the first 11

Let us remind you, Ivanović he has a contract with Benfica for four more years, but the possible departure of the Greek attacker could open the door for him. If Barcelona agrees on the transfer of Pavlidis, it will be an opportunity for the Croatian representative to prove himself once more in one of the biggest Portuguese clubs.
