"Bayern Munich are not planning wholesale changes to the squad this summer. The Bavarian club will look to add 3-4 signings to replace the departing players. Leon Goretzka and Raphael Guerreiro are leaving Bayern Munich on a free transfer, while Sacha Boey is expected to seal a permanent transfer after spending the second half of the season on loan at Galatasaray."
"Spurs have an option to sign Palhinha on a permanent deal for €30 million. At the halfway stage, it did look like Spurs would not sign Palhinha permanently. However, the new head coach, Roberto De Zerbi, is a big fan of the Portuguese midfielder. While talking to the media last week (via The Athletic), De Zerbi admitted that Spurs need players and leaders like Palhinha in the squad next season."
""We have to start with these types of people. More than players, we need reliable people, reliable players, and Palhinha is one of the best as a player, for sure, but as a guy. I want to see players with the same passion, attitude, spirit and personality. We are very lucky to have Palhinha with us." Roberto De Zerbi, Spurs head coach"
"Palhinha's future at Spurs will be dependent on which division the club will be playing in next season. They are currently out of the relegation zone, but need a win on Monday to get more daylight between them and 18th-placed West Ham United. The Portuguese midfielder doesn't feature in Bayern's long-term plans, which makes him such a strange signing for the club."
Bayern Munich plan to avoid wholesale squad changes in the summer, targeting 3-4 signings to cover departures. Leon Goretzka and Raphael Guerreiro are leaving on free transfers, and Sacha Boey is expected to complete a permanent move after a loan spell at Galatasaray. Bayern also need solutions for fringe players loaned out last summer, including Joao Palhinha, who is on loan at Tottenham Hotspur. Palhinha has received adequate playing time, but Tottenham’s season has been poor, with the club in a relegation battle. Tottenham can sign Palhinha permanently for €30 million, and Roberto De Zerbi wants players and leaders like him, with Palhinha’s future tied to Tottenham’s division next season.
