Bayern Munich set for huge loss on Joao Palhinha amid Premier League transfer interest


Tottenham is interested in signing the midfielder of Bayern Munich, Joao Palhinha, as Talksport understands.

Palhinha only spent one season in the Bundesliga giants after he was £ 46.5 million from Fulham from Fulham last summer.

He was part of her title winner page, but in the 2024/25 campaign only made six starts in the league in the middle of fitness problems.

The 30-year-old was able to leave Bavaria before the Deadline Day and immediately returned to the Premier League.

The winners of the Europa League Spurs are enthusiastic about the Portuguese international.

Talksport understands that Bayern would consider bids between 20 million GBP and 25 million GBP, which would be an enormous loss.

Bavaria tried to sign Palhinha for the first time in the summer of 2023, but saw a move of £ 55 million on the last day of the window.

Fulham later set a price of 59 million GBP, but then accepted a 46.5 million GBP that contained potential add-ons around 4.2 million GBP.

Joao Palhinha’s Premier League Record

The former sporty Lisbon man Palhinha was excellent in his two seasons in Craven Cottage.

He scored 66 starts and scored seven goals in the Premier League and was appointed Fulham’s seasonal player in 2022/23.

Palhinha played for Portugal at the World Cup 2022 and Euro 2024 with three or four times.

One step after Spurs would offer him more Champions League football next season after her triumph of the Europa League.

The side of Thomas Frank sold the midfielder Pierre-Emile Hojbjerg to Marseille for around 17 million GBP after his loan magic in France.

Spurs also expressed interest in Morgan Gibbs-White, but were drawn to a transfer saga with Nottingham Forest.

They initially activated its release clause of £ 60 million and were now allowed to move.

But Forest submitted a legal complaint against the team of North London and their approach for the 25-year-old.

Talksport understands that the forest owner Evangelos Marinakis wants Manchester City for Gibbs-White.

However, there is still a conviction that Spurs could revive the transfer depending on the outcome of the legal challenge.
