Milan is only willing to put up a starting bid of about €20 million (£17 million). On the other hand, Newcastle and Chelsea might begin bidding at €25 million (£21 million).
Furthermore, Pavlovic has been given a salary of between €1.5 million (£1.3 million) and €2 million (£1.7 million) per year by Italian powerhouse Milan. However, the English clubs would be prepared to pay more.
With 38 senior caps for Serbia, Pavlovic made an impression at Euro 2024 this summer.
