Palhinha’s move to Bayern Munich was finalised in July 2024, following a €55 million deal. Prior to his transfer, he played for Fulham, where he was a key figure in their midfield. Known for his robust defensive skills and ability to break up opposition play, Palhinha was a sought-after talent in the transfer market.
