Fulham midfielder Joao Palhinha is said to be dreaming of signing for Barcelona.

The anchorman was hoping to sign for Bayern Munich last summer, but a deal fell through.

Given Bayern did not return for him in the winter, Sport claims he has now moved on as well.

Palhinha hopes that Barca can raise funds to secure his signature in the summer.

Speaking to Sky Sports about his future, Palhinha said: “I've always said that I feel the love that the supporters have for me.

"I know that someday I will leave Fulham. I want to give everything. I'm always 100 per cent professional here, and I will do my job every time that I play for Fulham."
