Palhinha's Overhead Kick Highlights Spurs' 3-2 Loss as Tottenham Cool on €30m Buy Option

English reports indicate Tottenham are leaning against a €30 million purchase option following a recent drop in his starts.

Overview

  • The Bayern loanee leveled at 2-2 with a 78th‑minute overhead kick at Bournemouth before Antoine Semenyo struck in the 90+5 minute to seal a 3-2 defeat.
  • The strike was cited by the BBC as a Goal of the Season contender.
  • Palhinha is on loan to Tottenham until season’s end with a reported €30 million option, and he remains under contract at Bayern through 2028.
  • After a strong opening to the campaign, he has started only two of Tottenham’s last seven league matches, totaling 29 appearances with five goals and three assists, including an earlier overhead kick in the cup against Doncaster.
  • Post‑match frustration spilled over as Micky van de Ven and Palhinha confronted angry supporters, while separate reports suggest Semenyo is nearing a move to Manchester City.
