OFFICIAL: Bayern Munich close deal for “Paulinha” for 56 million euros

• Paulinha transfer fee is Fulham’s second-most expensive transfer fee, behind only Aleksandra Mitrovic’s deal last season.
• The 29-year-old midfielder has signed a long-term contract with the Bavarians until mid-2028.
Bayern Munich have officially signed Portuguese midfielder Joao Paulinha for a fee including add-ons of up to €56m on a long-term contract.
Paulinha was linked with a move to Bayern Munich last season, however the signing never materialised as Fulham failed to find a replacement in time for the transfer window’s deadline day in August 2023. However, he has since signed for the Bundesliga giants.
Bayern Munich reportedly ทางเข้า ufabet https://ufabet999.app paid Fulham €51m + €5m in add-ons for the 23-year-old in exchange for a four-year deal until mid-2028.
“It’s one of the happiest days of my life. I’m going to play for one of the top clubs in Europe. It’s a dream come true for me and I’m very proud of it. I’m looking forward to the great atmosphere and the fans at the Allianz Arena. I want to be happy and achieve trophies with Bayern Munich. I’ll give everything I have for that,” Paulinha said after his unveiling.
