Anthony Pavlesic came into the world on the 31st of January in 2006, hailing from the distant shores of Australia. This young prodigy, currently a mere 19 years of age, is earning his stripes as a goalkeeper for the world-renowned football club, Bayern Munich. With his towering stature of 6 ft 2 in (1.9m) and sturdy physique weighing in at 12st 8lb (80kg), he’s a formidable presence between the goalposts. His current number 37 jersey proudly bears testament to his position in the esteemed squad.
When it comes to the financial aspect of things, Pavlesic's current market value falls in the ballpark of around £125k, as documented by Transfermarkt. His Bayern Munich contract runs until 30 June 2026, meaning he still has a solid 1 year and 5 months to impress the management and fans alike.
Pavlesic's journey to the Bundesliga began down under. In the sunny month of July 2022, he linked up with Central Coast Mariners, plying his trade in the A-League in Australia. His performance there caught the eye of Bayern Munich's hawk-eyed scouts, leading to a transfer to the German giants one year later, in July 2023. The exact figure of this transfer remains undisclosed.
Alas, as a football writer with a particular focus on Celtic, I rue the fact that Pavlesic's path did not intersect with the Hoops during his blossoming career. Nevertheless, we continue to watch his trajectory with interest, as do the discerning fans of this beautiful game.
