Fabrizio Romano reported: "João Palhinha deal, 100% OFF. No way to change the situation despite medical and media duties done today. Been told Fulham tried last minute for Scott McTominay… but no deal on player side and Palhinha will return to Fulham."
Fulham finished 10th in the Premier League last season, arguably overperforming: according to the xG model, they should've conceded some 15-20 goals more than they did.
The London-based club sold their top scorer Aleksandr Mitrovic, however, it seems like their arguably best player Joao Palhinha stays at the club.
Fulham signed some players during this transfer window: centre-back Calvin Bassey from Ajax, right-back Timothy Castagne from Leicester, striker Raul Jimenez from Wolves and picked up Adama Traore on a free.
