Scouting Report & Player Insights
Strahinja Pavlović is a towering, physically dominant Serbian centre-back known for his aerial power, recovery pace and combative ground duels. Since joining AC Milan from RB Salzburg, he has established himself as a regular in the back line, prized for his athleticism and willingness to engage aggressively out of possession. His game is built more on physical dominance and defensive intensity than on progressive passing or ball-playing range, and he can be undisciplined in his tackling. A full Serbia international, he continues to develop his positional consistency alongside his obvious physical tools.
Moved to AC Milan from RB Salzburg in a 2024 transfer.
