While Palhinha is grateful to Fulham and their Premier League stability, he admits that a move to a team like Bayern Munich does tempt him.

At the moment, today, the likelihood is I stay at Fulham, but we'll see what happens," he told Flashscore.

I have immense respect for the Fulham organization, people know what a professional I am and that's the example I want to pass on to the many kids who follow me and look up to me."

He continued: I don't know if it's a closed door or not (previously collapsed Bayern transfer), everything in football is very uncertain. I can't say it's a closed or open door. I can't put myself in a position like that either.

Today I want to focus more on the European Championships because that's the goal, to leave a good impression at the Euros, and then everything else will follow.

"People already know me. The fact that I'm in the Premier League means I'm in a very big shop window, probably the biggest of them all. The Euros is also a showcase that everyone is following all over the world."
