Palhinha, 30, only signed for Bayern from Fulham in a deal worth €51m last summer, but started just 10 matches in 2024-25.

Tottenham are in talks over a loan move for Bayern Munich's João Palhinha, a source has told ESPN. The 30-year-old only joined Bayern last summer following a €50 million ($57m) move from Fulham but suffered with fitness issues and made just six starts in the Bundesliga.

Tottenham are closing in on a loan move for Bayern Munich midfielder Joao Palhinha. Talks between the clubs are at an advanced stage, with an agreement in principle in place. An agreement over personal terms is unlikely to pose a problem and the deal is set to carry an option for the 30-year-old to make the transfer permanent.
