FC Barcelona misses the best version of João Cancelo, who could be close to returning to the playing fields, given that apparently he would already be recovered from the discomfort that afflicted him, which would allow him to play his game to the maximum of his abilities
Good news for the FC Barcelona. The picture culé will be able to explain now with a Joãor Cancel in full physical conditions, as, as it aims 'Sportive World', has evidenciado recently after his return to the trainings of the Catalan cast. The staff had two deserved days of rest after the triumph in front of the Alavés in Vitoria (1-3), and the Portuguese has completed this day of practices without setbacks, what seems to indicate that it has surpassed the annoyances that ailed him.
It is necessary to remember that the native of Barreiro has been lidiando with several physical problems in this year 2024. At the beginning of year, suffered a distention of ligament in the left knee during the commitment against the UD The Palms (04/01), which carried him to lose at least six parties (two of the Supercopa of Spain, two of Glass of Rey and one of LaLiga). It returned to the announcement in the clash against the Athletic Club in the Glass of Rey (4-2). Nevertheless, it did not go until the duel against the Villarreal CF that Xavi Hernández gave him 45 minutes of game.
After his participation against the 'Yellow Submarine', where did not have his best performance and committed some unusual errors in him, perhaps because of his recent recovery of an injury and the fault of rhythm of game, arose some doubts on his physical state. These cuestionamientos intensified in the following parties against Osasuna and Alavés, respectively.

Although it completed the 90' like left side in the duel against the 'rojillos' and even gave a very beautiful assistance to Vitor Roque with a big centre with the outside of his foot, lit the alarms when seeing it physically exhausto and even limping after receiving a hit. Although the one of Terrassa treated to calm the waters in the back press conference to the clash, aseverando that "Lamine, Araujo and Cancel only have hits", the doubts persisted on if the luso was to 100% of his capacities in this moment.
The uncertainty grew after the ex of the Manchester City was substituted by Héctor Fort in the crash against the Alavés. Although in this moment seemed to be a tactical decision, later informed in the newspaper 'MARK' that the change made by caution, since it seems that I Cancel has been risking his physical state in the last parties. Therefore, the egarense has wanted to be cautious with his recovery. However, with this new information on his physical state, the panorama seems more alentador for a player that, when it is in full form, is a valuable tool for the club.
