The arrival of Vincent Kompany on the bench being official, Bayern Munich can now focus on the summer transfer window and recruitment. The Rekordmeister has already drawn up his list of players for sale, and is about to register his first signing. He is a defensive midfielder, as desired by the Belgian technician.
According to information from Sky Sports, the German club will – finally – get their hands on João Palhinha. However, last September, the Portuguese international (27 caps) extended his contract until 2028. While the transfer collapsed last summer, Bayern never really let go of the matter and an agreement is very close to be concluded with Fulham. Sports director Max Eberl even hopes to complete the operation before the start of the Euro next Friday. A verbal agreement is already reached between all parties.
