Bayern Munich have agreed to a $60.4 million transfer with Fulham to sign defensive midfielder Joao Palhinha. The transfer is a record sale for Fulham.
The move will end Bayern\'s year-long pursuit of Palhinha which saw a deal between the two clubs collapse last summer as Fulham struggled to find a replacement. Palhinha will turn 29 this month and sign a four-year deal with Bayern.
Palhinha had a 7.10 WhoScored rating last season averaging 4.6 tackles per match.
