Strahinja Pavlovic has arrived in Milan to finalize the details of his transfer to AC Milan, marking an important step forward in the team's defense reinforcement process under the guidance of Paulo Fonseca. Pavlovic, 23, landed in the Lombard city on Monday night, where he will undergo the necessary medical examinations before formalizing his move from RB Salzburg.
The young center-back, who has had a standout performance in his two years with RB Salzburg, has become a priority for Milan. The club has reached an agreement with the Austrian team for approximately 18 million euros, plus 2 million in variables, to secure his signing. Pavlovic will be a key piece in the defense, forming a promising partnership with Fikayo Tomori.
During his time at RB Salzburg, Pavlovic played a total of 71 games, scoring six goals and providing six assists. His performance has caught the attention of key figures at Milan, such as Zlatan Ibrahimovic, Geoffrey Moncada, and Giorgio Furlani, who saw in the Serbian an ideal option to strengthen the team's defensive line.
Atlético Madrid Tried to Sign Pavlovic
Interest in Pavlovic has also stirred movements in other clubs, like Newcastle United, which has intensified its interest in Malick Thiaw, potentially opening up space in Milan's defense.
Additionally, it is worth mentioning that Pavlovic turned down an offer from Atlético Madrid to secure his move to Milan, underscoring the player's commitment to the Rossoneri project. With his arrival, Milan hopes to add solidity and experience to their defense, preparing the team to face next season's challenges with renewed confidence.
