Tottenham in talks to sign João Palhinha on loan from Bayern

Tottenham Hotspur are in talks to sign João Palhinha from Bayern Munich on a loan deal. Palhinha, a 30-year-old Portuguese midfielder, joined Bayern last summer from Fulham in a deal worth up to £47.4m, but has struggled to feature regularly under manager Vincent Kompany. The new Tottenham manager, Thomas Frank, is keen to add more options to his midfield and has opened negotiations with Bayern to bring Palhinha to the Premier League club on a temporary basis. While the details of the potential loan deal are still being discussed, it is expected that Bayern will allow Palhinha to leave, though it is unclear if the agreement will include an option or obligation to make the transfer permanent at the end of the loan period.
