Tottenham approaches Bayern Munich’s Flop Joa Parchña
Tottenham will add steel to their midfield after agreeing to a deal between Bayern Munich and Joa Pargigna.
Portugal International won the fees from Fulham to £47.4 million last summer, but has failed to establish itself under Vincent Company and is reportedly keen to return to the Premier League.
The Spurs gave him the opportunity to try and rebuild under new boss Thomas Frank.

The deal with Palhinha will see him join Tottenham on his first season of loan agreement with the London club taking full advantage of his wages, but there will also be a clause that will allow him to move permanently for £27 million in June next year.
The 30-year-old made a reputation on Fulham as a tough tackle midfielder who thrived by disbanding the offense.
He made 68 top flight appearances for the cottage, but started just six games in Bayern’s Bundesliga.

If a deal is made, it is Tottenham’s fourth major signature of the summer, followed by Mohamed Kudus, Kotatakai and Luka Voskovic.
Kevin Danso and Mathys Tel also moved to North London after a loan spell with the Spurs last season.
