The Bayern defender had a blood alcohol level of 0.8 and was fined by his team by a “five-digit” amount.
In a matter of hours, Benjamin Pavard has transformed from a hero to a villain. Joshua Kimmich’s corner was headed in by the adaptable Bayern Munich defender to start the scoring in a 2-0 Champions League victory over Inter.
The 26-year-old France international is currently making news due to an offensive off-field incident. According to Bild, Pavard was detained six weeks ago after a Bayern match for drinking and driving.

Pavard Issues
In the meanwhile, Bayern has also acted. According to “Bild,” Pavard’s team has fined him a five-figure sum. He is being driven by a chauffeur every day to Bayern’s Sabener Strasse sports facility.
Bayern Munich defeated Inter, winning all six of their group stage matches in the Champions League to finish with 18 points.
In the Round of 16 draw, they will be a seeded team and will be hoping for a good draw in the following round.
Although they are currently being held off the top spot by Union Berlin’s fantastic season, their Bundesliga performance has not been quite as outstanding.
After 12 games, Union are one point ahead of the champions, and it does not yet appear as though they will lose their lead.
