João Palhinha has expressed his desire to leave Fulham after agreeing to a five-year contract with Bayern Munich. The Portuguese midfielder, aged 28, revealed his frustration over Fulham’s reluctance to let him speak on the matter, stating, “They won’t let me speak. I would like to say something,” according to fussball.news.

Background

Palhinha, who joined Fulham from Sporting CP, has been a key player for the club. His defensive prowess and ability to break up play have made him a target for top European clubs. Bayern Munich has been pursuing Palhinha for several months, with negotiations intensifying recently.

Recent Developments

  • 2024-06-12: Bayern Munich prepared an enhanced bid for Palhinha.
  • 2024-06-10: Bayern Munich made significant progress in negotiations.
  • 2024-06-09: Bayern Munich agreed on personal terms with Palhinha.

Fulham’s Stance

Fulham’s reluctance to release Palhinha has been evident since last summer when a potential deal with Bayern collapsed. The club’s management, including Tony Khan, has previously discussed Palhinha’s future amid ongoing exit rumours.

Palhinha’s situation remains unresolved as he continues to push for a move to the Bundesliga giants.
