Bayern Munich star Ryan Gravenberch hopes a transfer to Liverpool OR Man United will go through before Friday's deadline - as Thomas Tuchel turns to Fulham midfielder Joao Palhinha to replace him

Bayern Munich have turned to Fulham midfielder Joao Palhinha as they look to strengthen further before the deadline.

With Ryan Gravenberch hoping for a move to either Liverpool or Manchester United to go through, Thomas Tuchel wants to ensure he has enough dynamic options for his own midfield.

Manchester United's Scott McTominay was one name mentioned and Bayern have also checked on Chelsea's Conor Gallagher but a deal for Portugal international Palhinha is now being evaluated as the clock ticks down on the Bundesliga's 5pm Friday deadline.

West Ham had a £45m bid rejected for the 28-year old earlier in the window and it is understood Fulham want around £60m should they consider letting him go at this stage.
