If Thomas Tuchel absolutely wants to recruit a midfielder before the end of the summer transfer window, which will soon close, to strengthen the midfield of Bayern Munich, the track leading to Scott McTominay continues inexorably to cool despite the strong interest of the coach of the Bavarian club. Nevertheless, the leaders of the Rekordmeister have targeted another Premier League player and not the least since it is one of the executives of Fulham, the Portuguese João Palhinha, as reported by our German colleagues from Picture.
Arrived last summer from Sporting CP and still under contract with the English team until 2027, the Portuguese international (21 caps) should cost Bayern Munich quite a lot, at least several tens of millions of euros, so that he is currently in top form with the Cottagers. From his first season in England, the 28-year-old has also become one of the pillars of his team and one of the best defensive midfielders in the Premier League. A feature that particularly appeals to Thomas Tuchel.
