Pavard has made the most of his second chance with greater wisdom. At Cagliari, he was one of Inter Milan's best performers on the pitch, which is undoubtedly good news for Cristian Chivu.

As TuttoSport reported this morning, reintegrating smoothly was not easy for him: "The toll of his final season at Inter Milan still lingers—a season that ended with an ankle injury and a collective collapse at Monaco was particularly glaring. Add to that the summer images of him playing padel with Theo Hernandez after relinquishing the Club World Cup, which were uploaded to social media. It's even harder to say whether the locker room will forget these things and be willing to rebuild the already fragile relationship."

However, observers quickly noticed that his attitude had changed: "The former Bayern Munich player, dubbed 'Benjamin' by Inter Milan upon his arrival in Milan, was only called by that nickname by his wife this past summer, and it turns out she was right. Pavard showed everyone from the start, especially Cristian Chivu, that he wanted to try again."

He didn't just express it through words but won back the coach and teammates through his training and performances on the pitch. This summer, the situation has also shifted: from unpopular to seemingly overblown; from nearly destined to leave to now regarded as a fresh asset in some respects, simply because Inter Milan never found a buyer and never found an affordable replacement defender."
