"Bayern Munich midfielder Joao Palhinha is currently on loan at Tottenham Hotspur, and the German club is hoping to get rid of him permanently. According to a report from German publication BILD, they are hoping that Tottenham will exercise the option to sign him permanently at the end of the season. Can Spurs sign Joao Palhinha? The North London club will have to pay a fee of around 27 million."
"He is likely to improve further as the season progresses and he adapts to their style of play. There is no doubt that he could be an invaluable asset for the team by the end of the season. The reported asking price is quite reasonable, and Tottenham would do well to secure his signature. They need someone with his skill set in the middle of the park."
"Meanwhile, the Portuguese international will be hoping to join them permanently as well. He's enjoying his football at the London club, and he will look to sort out his long-term future and focus on his football. He does not have a future at the German club, and returning to the Bundesliga will not be the preferred option for him. The transfer would be ideal for all parties."
Bayern Munich wants to offload Joao Palhinha and hope Tottenham will trigger a purchase option at season's end for roughly 27 million. Palhinha is on loan at Tottenham and has become a key midfield presence, offering physicality, defensive skill and occasional goals. Tottenham value his fit with their style and expect further improvement as he adapts. Palhinha prefers a permanent move and has limited prospects back at his German club. The fee is viewed as reasonable, and a permanent transfer would suit Bayern, Tottenham and the player while bolstering Spurs' squad depth.
