Report: Joao Palhinha "candidate for sale" at Bayern Munich
Briefly

Bayern Munich is reportedly considering placing midfielder João Palhinha on the transfer market after just one season. The team has an abundance of midfield talent, including Joshua Kimmich, Leon Goretzka, and new prospect Tom Bischof, leaving Palhinha as potentially surplus. Despite being a strong defensive player, Palhinha struggled for playing time this season due to tactical decisions and player fitness. At 29, if he cannot solidify his position in the starting eleven, a transfer may benefit both him and the club.
Bayern Munich may be set to place midfielder João Palhinha on the transfer market after just one season in Bavaria, following an oversupply in midfield.
Following Kimmich's imminent extension, there would be an oversupply in midfield next season (Kimmich, Goretzka, Pavlović, Bischof, Palhinha), making Palhinha a candidate for sale.
Palhinha, with his defensive strengths, faced challenges in making an impact in a midfield dominated by Kimmich and Goretzka, ultimately leaving him surplus to requirements.
At 29, and with limited opportunities due to injuries and tactics, it may be better for both player and Bayern to explore a transfer for Palhinha.
