João Palhinha attended the final day of NOS Alive on Saturday at the Passeio Marítimo de Algés. The Bayern Munich midfielder was seen speaking with Daniel Oliveira and posed for photos alongside Jubas, Sporting’s mascot.

A Bola reports that Bayern are now open to considering a loan exit for the 31-year-old, provided they receive a fee, a shift from their initial position.

The previous demand of about €25m had been a significant obstacle for suitors, particularly Benfica, who have yet to make a major sale this summer. A paid loan would create a more accessible route for the club to explore.

Benfica have kept Palhinha high on their list and Marco Silva particularly appreciates his profile after working with him at Fulham. Although on holiday, the Portugal international remains a prominent name in this window.

His situation remains one to watch in the coming weeks as Benfica aim to reinforce for the new season at home and in Europe.
