Latest Fantasy Rumors
Could remain in England
Bayern Munich could transfer Palhinha to another Premier League club if he doesn't stay at Tottenham past this season, according to Bayern Insider.
ANALYSIS
Palhinha is on loan at Tottenham Hotspur, but with the London club facing the prospect of relegation, their future is uncertain. Even if the club doesn't go down, it's not clear that they'll sign Palhinha to a permanent deal following his loan spell from Bayern Munich. If that's the case, Bayern are ready to talk with other clubs in the Premier League to pursue a permanent departure from the midfielder.
