Bayern Munich has made the decision to part ways with Joao Palhinha just one season after his arrival. The 30-year-old Portuguese midfielder has failed to establish himself in the Bavarian team, and his performance has fallen short of expectations. Despite the €51 million investment last summer, the sports management, along with coach Vincent Kompany, have chosen to open the door for his exit.

His destination will be Tottenham Hotspur, a team that will welcome him on loan, where the player will reunite with the Premier League, a competition he already knows well from his time at Fulham. According to Bild, the agreement between both clubs is well advanced, with only minor details left to finalize the deal.

A failed signing for Bayern

Bayern acknowledges that the experience with Palhinha has not worked out, marked by both his limited playing time and physical problems that prevented him from achieving consistency. Nonetheless, the Munich club had initially considered a permanent sale for a sum close to €30 million, but the London-based team prefers to include an option rather than an obligation to buy.

The Portuguese midfielder will try to regain his form in England, where he displayed his best performance. Meanwhile, Bayern seeks to turn the page and correct a signing that, this time, has not lived up to expectations.
