Injury Undisclosed
Est. Return 1/24/2026
Tight call for Burnley match
Palhinha (undisclosed) is in doubt for Saturday's match against Burnley, according to manager Thomas Frank. "Joao is progressing, could be close for Burnley, but I think it will be a tight one."
ANALYSIS
Palhinha has been progressing through his injury this week, but is not yet fully fit, still needing to gain a bit more fitness before he is deemed an option for Saturday. This will likely lead him to some late testing ahead of the match, with that to decide if he is an option or not. He has missed their past two games, and after being a late call, he will likely only find the bench if fit.

Latest Fantasy Rumors
Could join Spurs permanently
Tottenham want to sign Joao Palhinha to a permanent contract, according to TALKSport.
ANALYSIS
Palhinha has enjoyed an excellent start to life at Tottenham and is keen on staying with the club. Bayern would also be open to letting him leave, as he never adjusted to life in Germany. Sounds as if a permanent transfer from Bayern to Spurs would be a move that would satisfy all parties.
