João Palhinha Transfer from FC Bayern München to West Ham United
West Ham United are on the verge of entering formal negotiations for Joao Palhinha, having tracked the player's availability in recent weeks.
West Ham United have shown interest in João Palhinha, the midfielder from FC Bayern. The player is open to a transfer to England. At Bayern, under coach Vincent Kompany, Palhinha does not have a future, having played only 45 minutes in the Club World Cup. He is contractually bound until 2028.
João Palhinha, bought for 51 million euros, could leave Bayern for 30 to 35 million euros. West Ham United is interested.
João Palhinha has not ruled out a transfer this summer. He mentioned having three years left on his contract with Bayern Munich and expressed the need to discuss his future with the coach and sporting director to see if he will get his chances at the club. Interest in Palhinha has been shown by Benfica Lisbon, West Ham United, and his former club, FC Fulham. The player emphasized his dream to succeed at Bayern and his pride in being there, despite the challenges faced.
Joao Palhinha's agent is working to get him back to the Premier League after a difficult first season at Bayern Munich. Sources informed CaughtOffside that Palhinha's representatives are exploring options with clubs like West Ham. Bayern might let him go as they prioritize a new contract for Leon Goretzka.
West Ham have contacted Bayern Munich over the availability of Joao Palhinha, who has also attracted interest from Fulham. The Portuguese midfielder, who was previously with Fulham, is now being eyed by both Premier League clubs as they seek to bolster their midfield options. This interest comes just a year after Palhinha made his move from Fulham to Bayern Munich. According to Transfermarkt, the player's current market value is estimated at 40 million euros.
