Bundesliga - Report: Palhinha signed contract with FC Bayern

The Portuguese national team player João Palhinha, according to information from TV broadcaster Sky, has signed his contract with FC Bayern Munich. The Europa League participant will not fly back to Munich as planned right away, but will first go on vacation and then return to Germany in two weeks, it was stated. He passed the medical test successfully at the Bundesliga club on Saturday.

The transfer of the 28-year-old from FC Fulham to the German record champions has been considered a done deal for a long time. The defensive midfielder is said to receive a four-year contract with an option for an additional year. The FC Bayern is reportedly paying the English first division club a fixed transfer fee of 46 million Euro, which can increase due to bonus payments.

Originally, Palhinha was supposed to come earlier. The deal for the 30-time national player, who switched to England in 2022, fell through in the last summer transfer window. Fulham did not want to release him without a replacement. The then Bayern coach Thomas Tuchel was interested in the signing of a more defensive midfielder.
