Tottenham and Liverpool eye Premier League rivals' secret weapon as ideal January transfer

Tottenham and Liverpool are eyeing a potential move for Fulham star Joao Palhinha in the coming weeks ahead of a potential transfer switch. That's according to transfer journalist Dean Jones in his column for GiveMeSport, who claims that a move is being eyed by the two sides, but Fulham have a clear stance on any deal.

"His consistency is almost unrivalled across the league for players in this position and it is understood that Liverpool and Tottenham are two of the clubs casting an eye over him at the moment," Jones said. "Liverpool had him on their radar even before his switch to Craven Cottage."

The Portuguese midfielder has enjoyed his start to life in the Premier League so far, having made the £20million switch from Sporting CP in the summer. While he may have expected to be in something of a relegation fight this season, the opposite has been the case so far.
