Palhinha could leave Tottenham Hotspur

Palhinha could return to Bayern Munich from his loan spell at Tottenham Hotspur at the end of the season, according to according to Bild journalist Christian Falk.

Falk wrote on his website, CF Bayern Insider: “It is TRUE: Palhinha could depart Tottenham in the summer.

“There is a discussion ongoing at Bayern Munich because they wanted to sell the player to Spurs (as he’s currently on loan).

“They’d hoped the Premier League club would end up triggering the release clause (about €30m [£25.8m]). 

“It could be that Tottenham won’t look to sign him at the moment, whilst the future of the club remains very open. 

“From Bayern’s perspective, they’re talking about selling him to another Premier League club if he does come back to Munich. 

“He’s played well in England, and other clubs are watching him and seeing that he’s not the problem at Tottenham. 

“So, Bayern are optimistic that Palhinha won’t return to Germany in the summer and he’ll still be playing in the Premier League next season. 

“But nobody knows if it will still be at Tottenham!”
