Tottenham Hotspur are reported to be happy with Bayern Munich loanee João Palhinha, according to Sky Germany.

The relegation-threatened London club can imagine triggering the option to buy, but they ideally want to renegotiate with the Bavarians.

What was originally agreed was option to buy set at €25million, with potential add-ons that could raise the fee to up to €30million.

However, if the recently crowned Bundesliga champions choose not to lower the price, Spurs are unlikely to purchase the midfielder.

A final decision regarding the Portuguese international's future is expected to be clarified at the end of the current season.

Bayern are open to a sale and reportedly see no future for the 30-year-old at the club despite his contract remaining valid until 2028.

Even through Leon Goretzka will leave in summer, the likes of Joshua Kimmich and Aleksandar Pavlović remain key cogs in their side.
