Tottenham are in talks over a loan move for Bayern Munich's João Palhinha, a source has told ESPN. The 30-year-old only joined Bayern last summer following a €50 million ($57m) move from Fulham but suffered with fitness issues and made just six starts in the Bundesliga.

Palhinha, 30, only signed for Bayern from Fulham in a deal worth €51m last summer, but started just 10 matches in 2024-25.
