THE BIG PROBLEM OF BARÇA
The labyrinth of FC Barcelona with Joao Cancelo
FC Barcelona knew very well that, with the loan of Joao Cancelo without a purchase option, in the summer they were going to have big problems when negotiating with Manchester City. The more the player revalues himself, the 'worse' the story will be
Joao Cancel has turned into an indisputable player in the FC Barcelona since it landed in the last day of the market of signings estival. It was the piece that was missing him to the puzzle of Xavi Hernández and, although it has gone of more to less, the intention of the blaugrana is to remain it of permanent way. His cession wins on 30 June 2024, but will try to concretise his continuity. It is a folder that 'will open' during the next year.
In the picture blaugrana are loved with him and find in the constant research of the formula so that it can explode his best version. They have tested him like side, in both bands, as fourth midfield player and also like extreme. I cancel it needs freedom to go up to the line of attack and not having so many 'responsibilities' in defensive tasks, but Xavi has not given with the exact key.
The difficulties for the Barça with Joao
The true is that for the Barça knows that has a big wrap of face to the market of signings estival because it will have to negotiate with the Manchester City and the context is not favorecedor. Although they already put a lot of eases for his cession in the summer, is unlikely that the situation go back to repeat , by several factors. The first is that I Cancel already was yielded in the half of the season 2022/2023, will be in this until 30 June and will not want to yield him a year more. It would not have any type of sense.
The second factor that influences is that they expect to take out a good percentage of Cancel, put no longer have he. The aim of the City, of face to the summer 2024, is to concretise the sale of the player and, between better are his provision, more revalorizará in the market. It seems unlikely that ask less than 25-30 million euros by his traspaso and it will be necessary to ask if the Barça will be in capacity to assume that mount.
Will have rival the Barça in 2024?
These two points are the most important, but will add an ingredient 'extra' that it can be decisive for the interests of the Barcelona club: The possibility that they appear teams with the intention to do with the services of the Portuguese player. Already in the summer had trascended that the Arsenal tried his traspaso and from Saudi Arabia were had to throw the house by the window by his index card. The Manchester City will prioritise a sale to the best bidder. It will remain for seeing the posture of Cancel, the one who for now is very happy in the City Condal.
