João Palhinha remains one of the most talked-about names in the transfer market when it comes to the Alvalade club and, at this stage, he has two options on the table for next season: stay at Tottenham or return to Sporting.
as the midfielder wants to resolve the situation as quickly as possible.
Tottenham remain interested in securing João Palhinha's stay, but are looking to renegotiate the terms of the deal with Bayern Munich - who are even under pressure. The London club had secured a purchase option in the loan agreement signed last season, but now want to lower the figures initially set.
It should be remembered that the clause negotiated between the English and German clubs was set at €25 million, and could reach €30 million through the fulfilment of objectives. Even so, the Spurs officials believe it will be possible to reach an agreement for a lower fee.
According to the same source, negotiations are ongoing between the clubs, a scenario that keeps Tottenham in a favourable position to secure the Portuguese midfielder's stay. On the other side is Sporting, who continue to monitor the situation. The Lions have been following the process for several weeks and are waiting for clarity regarding the player's future before making a more concrete move.
