No farewell to FC Bayern

Despite his disappointing season so far, the Portuguese João Palhinha does not think of leaving Bayern in summer. “I’m not interested in the rumors about a farewell,” said the midfielder of the “Sport Bild”. “I will do everything to show why the club spent the money for me. I don’t think so to go.”
The 29-year-old Palhinha came from FC Fulham for a long attempt after a long attempt-after a long attempt and had signed a contract until June 30, 2028. Only four new additions were even more expensive in the history of the FCB. However, he has not yet been able to fight for a regular place at Bayern and only came to 19 missions across competitions, eight of them from the start. Most recently, he had once again stood in the starting eleven against VfL Bochum, but saw the red card shortly before the break. The leader surprisingly lost the game afterwards 2: 3.
At the last market value update in December, Palhinha’s value of 50 million euros fell to 40 million euros. The veteran also said about a period of time: “I cannot control my job, what else happens.” In the central midfield, the Munich crowds, especially since Leon Goretzka (30), which was actually for sale, fought back into the team. What Palhinha serves as a model. “There are many examples in our team: Almost all of us complained about some players with us last season: Leon Goretzka, Dayot Upamecano, Alphonso Davies. Many players who are exemplary for my situation now. I just want to show what I can.”
