Joao Palhinha Next Club Odds: Bayern Favourites To Land Fulham Star Despite Collapsed Summer Move

He was incredibly close to departing Fulham in the summer, and if fresh reports are to be believed – he could be on his way come January. SportsLens experts have revealed the latest Joao Palhinha next club odds, and they indicate Bayern Munich haven’t given up on signing the midfielder.

Portuguese sensation Joao Palhinha was in Munich to complete his move to Bayern over the summer, however negotiations with Fulham got underway too late which led to the move collapsing on deadline day.

The 28-year-old was reportedly in tears after being told that the move wouldn’t go ahead, but he has since penned a new deal at Craven Cottage – extending his stay until the summer of 2028, with the club holding an option to extend for a further 12 months.

Signing a new deal hasn’t stopped rumours of an exit though, and after another strong start to the campaign, reports from Sky Germany indicate that Bayern will move for the midfielder once again in the winter.

Palhinha Next Club Odds: Bayern Remain Interested Despite New Fulham Contract

Fulham fans will be desperate to keep Palhinha in London for as long as possible, however his consistently excellent performances in the Premier League makes a move to one of Europe’s elite Champions League clubs seem like an inevitability.

Bayern’s interest in the Portugal international has been no secret, and the latest reports from Sky Germany claim that he remains a priority on their transfer wishlist and that the Cottagers have signaled that would sanction a move if their terms are met.

Their report claims that the Bavarians and Fulham could reach an agreement on a fee below £60 million, although there are no active negotiations between the clubs at this stage.

Considering all of the above, it comes as no surprise to see Bayern lead our exclusive Palhinha next club odds market, priced at 1/2, a much shorter price than a move to the Saudi Pro League which is rated as the second likeliest destination at 7/1.

Barcelona also looks to be an attractive option for Palhinha, who has previously stated that he idolised legendary Barça midfielder Sergio Busquets, but with the likes of Pedri, Gavi, Frenkie de Jong, Ilkay Gundogan and Oriol Romeu already on the books – a move seems unlikely, but it remains a competitive option in our exclusive market.
