Hansi Flick's firm stance on Joao Cancelo's future at Barça

Joao Cancel is one of the players that are called to be leading in the market of signings estival of this year. His cession in the FC Barcelona finalises the next 30 June and the intention of the culés always has been to extend his bond, in identical conditions, by a season more. With the change of trainer, in front of the exit of Xavi Hernández and the imminent landing of Hansi Flick, the history will not change.

According to a recent information of 'The National' of Catalonia, the German trainer would have to Cancel between his plans of face to the next course. It would be, in such a case, the attendant to carry the reins of the right side, as it was foreseen when they achieved his cession in 2023. The injury of Alejandro Balde, that has been 'KO' from January and will reappear in August, forced to Xavi to throw of the Portuguese to cover the left band, but with Hansi Flick would aim to return to his natural position.

In fact, the technician would be by the work of 'ask' to the Barça that concretise his definite incorporation. Up to now, the intention of the Barcelona club was to request, through Jorge Mendes, the cession by a year and include an option of effective purchase for the summer of 2025, when, in theory, the financial situation will be more effective and will be able to disburse the 'a lot of' million euros that could ask the Manchester City by the traspaso.

There will be 'case Cancel' this summer

The English always have been adherents to concretise the definite sale of the international with Portugal this summer, after chaining two consecutive cessions (to the Bayern of Munich, in the second half of the 22/23 and the current to the Barça) and this summer will be very attentive to the offers that can arrive by the footballer, especially from Saudi Arabia. They are very conscious that they will not be able to ask the same figures that does a year, when they asked to the muniqueses 75 'kilos' for the trapaso definite.

The Barcelona are not in conditions to do a big outlay and, if it remains finally Joao a campaign more, will be through a loan with option of purchase (in spite of the request of Flick), because there is not how assume it. 'Relief' informed, during the month of April, that the 'citizens' wanted to ask around 40 or 50 million euros to finish to cover the figure of his amortización.
