According to Bild, Bayern Munich is preparing to submit one final offer for Fulham midfielder João Palhinha.
Earlier reports suggested that Bayern had reached an agreement on personal terms with the Portuguese international, sparking optimism about a summer transfer. Despite this, negotiations with Fulham have proven challenging, with the London club rejecting Bayern’s initial bids of €35 million and €45 million.
Undeterred, Bayern Munich is set to propose a new offer of €46 million plus add-ons for Palhinha. However, Fulham’s valuation of the player stands at €70 million, making the acceptance of Bayern’s latest offer uncertain.
Last summer, a €58 million deal for Palhinha was on the verge of completion before falling apart at the eleventh hour. Since then, Fulham has secured Palhinha’s commitment through 2028, further complicating the negotiations.
Fulham is reluctant to accept a lower fee than the one previously agreed upon, especially after Palhinha’s contract extension. As Bayern prepares its final bid, it remains to be seen whether Fulham will lower their demands or hold firm on their valuation.
Regardless of the outcome, this ongoing transfer saga appears to be reaching its conclusion, bringing clarity to Palhinha’s future.
