Man Utd & Liverpool join race to sign Arsenal midfield target

11 December 2023 - 21:03

Manchester United and Liverpool could give competition to Arsenal in the race to sign Fulham midfielder Joao Palhinha in January.

  • Chelsea ready to pay £87m for Spanish striker?
  • Chelsea want to sign Nuno Tavares?



  • The Portuguese was on the cusp of leaving for Bayern Munich last summer, but a deal broke down in the final hours of deadline day.

    Palhinha underwent his medical and photoshoot with the German champions, but he was called back after a replacement was not found.

    Bayern have since cooled their pursuit of the player, but he could yet secure a high-profile transfer away from the Cottagers, as per Todo Fichajes.

    Arsenal are already looking into a deal for him and it is reported that United and Liverpool could also provide competition in the transfer race.

    The Gunners see him as a replacement for Thomas Partey. United, on the other hand, could offload Casemiro in order to sign the Portuguese.

    Liverpool are still yearning for a defensive midfielder and Palhinha would be perfect for them. He is one of the league's best tacklers.
