Manchester City are said to be considering a move for Bayern Munich midfielder Aleksandar Pavlovic, according to Sports Boom. Across Europe, there is a growing feeling that something major is taking shape in Bavaria.At Bayern, Pavlovic’s rise has already changed the club’s planning, shifting him from a long-term project into an immediate pillar of the team. As the original report states, he is no longer just a “bright prospect” but a central figure in Bayern’s future.🚨🚨 | 𝐁𝐑𝐄𝐀𝐊𝐈𝐍𝐆: Manchester City have identified Bayern Munich’s Aleksandar Pavlović as the perfect replacement for Rodri.Bayern would only consider letting him go for a fee in excess of £100M, a deal that would make him the most expensive German player in history. 🤯… pic.twitter.com/Xqu6jaoTb6— MatchdayHQ (@TheMatchdayHQ) April 10, 2026 Under Vincent Kompany, Pavlovic has redefined what is expected from a deep-lying midfielder.

That detail underlines how seriously Pavlović is being considered, with some already viewing him as a potential “metronome” for their systems.Manchester United are also reportedly conducting what has been called “long term shadow tracking”, suggesting a sustained and deliberate monitoring process rather than short-term interest. Pavlovic’s value lies in his all-round profile, combining “traditional defensive discipline and avant garde offensive creativity”. That rare mix explains why his price tag continues to climb.Bayern’s position remains firm: Pavlovic is “unsellable”. However, modern football often turns such declarations into starting points for negotiation rather than final statements.Aleksandar Pavlović discusses his style of play in interview with the club's magazine #Säbener51• Aleks, how would you describe what kind of player you are in a few words?Pavlović: "I'm someone who tries to take control of the game and direct what’s happening with composure… pic.twitter.com/vvtqTMwpqn— Bayern & Germany (@iMiaSanMia) April 2, 2026 Reports indicate that any deal would likely begin around €90 million, with a final fee potentially surpassing €110 million.
