Bayern Munich are set to finalize the signing of Fulham midfielder Joao Palhinha in a deal worth £42.3m, plus £4.2m in add-ons.
The 28-year-old was close to joining Bayern in 2023, but the deal fell through on deadline day.
This transfer will be a club record sale for Fulham and comes just days after Marco Silva turned down an offer to move to Saudi Arabian club Al-Ittihad.
