Palhinha has struggled to secure a consistent spot in Bayern's starting XI and the club may be open to selling Palhinha to recoup the €55M plus bonuses that they paid Fulham in the summer of 2024 to acquire the 29 year old.
A transfer fee slightly lower then what the German giants paid could be enough to get the deal done or Benfica could look at purchasing 50% of the players rights to make the switch to the Lisbon based club.
Palhinha would have to agree to join Benfica and after spending nine seasons with cross town rivals Sporting, it may be a tough sell on Benfica's part to convince Palhinha to return to Portugal and don the club's red jersey.
Palhinha appeared in only 24 games across all competitions with Bayern this season and failed to score or provide a helper in 941 minutes of action. Palhinha did miss around ten weeks of action due to a right abductor injury suffered during his time with the Portugal national team in November.
