João Palhinha Race: Bayern Switches Focus Amidst Transfer Deadline
Bayern Withdraws Interest, Phillips Emerges As Top Target
Munich Shifts Gears in Midfield Pursuit
Bavarian giants Bayern Munich have made a significant move in their pursuit of a midfield upgrade, pulling out of the race for Fulham's João Palhinha. The Portuguese star was previously linked with a move to Allianz Arena, but it now appears that Bayern have shifted their focus to another target.
According to reliable sources, Bayern have added Manchester City's Kalvin Phillips to their extensive shortlist of potential signings. The English international has fallen out of favor at the Etihad Stadium under Pep Guardiola and is keen on securing regular playing time.
With the January transfer window fast approaching, Bayern are expected to make a decisive move in the midfield department. Declan Rice, who was once a top target, is now deemed too expensive for the German club.
Kalvin Phillips, a defensive midfielder known for his tenacity and ball-winning ability, fits Bayern's profile and could prove to be a valuable addition to Julian Nagelsmann's squad. However, the Englishman is also attracting interest from Liverpool, setting up a potential bidding war between the two European powerhouses.
