Bayern Munich are looking to get rid of Joao Palhinha permanently at the end of the season, and they are hoping to sell him to Tottenham.
The North London outfit have an option to make the move permanent in the summer. The Portuguese International has impressed at the London club so far, and he will look to establish himself as a player for them.
Bayern want Spurs to sign Joao Palhinha permanently
Tottenham will need to pay around £27 million in order to make the move permanent. According to BILD, the player does not have a future at the German club, and they are hoping that Tottenham will seize the opportunity to sign him permanently.
It remains to be seen how the situation develops. There is no doubt that the Portuguese international is a quality player, and he has made an instant impact in the Premier League.
It is fair to assume that Tottenham are likely to trigger the option to sign him permanently. The midfielder is at the peak of his career, and he has been performing at a high level. He has impressed manager Thomas Frank, who labelled him as a “very good” player after his League Cup performance last night.
Spurs need to keep Palhinha
Tottenham need a combative presence like him in the middle of the park, and they should look to keep him. The reported asking price is quite reasonable for a player of his quality and experience. He could justify the investment in the coming seasons.
The Portuguese international will look to sort out his future as well. He will not want to return to the German club after struggling for game time with them last season. He is enjoying his football at Tottenham, and he will hope to make the move permanent as well.
