Bayern Munich is set to complete the acquisition of Joao Palhinha from Fulham for a substantial fee of €50 million, as confirmed by transfer expert Fabrizio Romano.
After securing Michael Olise from Crystal Palace, Bayern’s manager Vincent Kompany continues to strengthen his squad with the addition of the talented Portuguese midfielder.
Romano has reported that Palhinha has successfully completed his medical examination, and the signing of the contract is the only step remaining. This move comes after a failed attempt to bring Palhinha to Bayern on the previous transfer deadline day. Despite managerial changes, Bayern’s interest in the 29-year-old midfielder has remained steadfast.
Fulham, under the guidance of Marco Silva, faces the challenge of replacing key players following the departures of Palhinha and Tosin Adarabioyo. Silva’s objective will be to ensure that Fulham remains competitive in the Premier League and avoids the risk of relegation. The early resolution of Palhinha’s transfer provides Fulham with ample time to find suitable replacements during the current transfer window.
Fulham’s transfer dealings have not only highlighted the club’s proactive approach but also underscore the evolving dynamics of player movements within the Premier League. As Palhinha prepares to sign a contract that will keep him at Bayern until 2028, both clubs will be keenly watching how these changes impact their upcoming seasons.
