The future of Joao Cancelo<\/strong> seems to strongly point towards the European market in the transfer window that opens on January 2nd. The Saudi outlet ‘Arryadiyah’ assures that the 31-year-old full-back is not in the plans of Al Hilal<\/strong> coach Simone Inzaghi<\/strong> for the second half of the season, and the Portuguese international also would not want to stay in Arabia<\/p> Although he has a contract until 2027, Al Hilal does not intend to block Cancelo’s departure. On the contrary, **the club would accept a six-month loan move**, covering part of his salary (around 15 million gross per year) to facilitate his exit. This would be contingent on the stance of Inzaghi, who took charge of the club in the summer, before the Club World Cup.<\/p> In that regard, Cancelo has reportedly already asked his agent, Jorge Mendes<\/strong>, to offer him to several European giants, as his goal is to return to playing at the elite level as soon as possible and arrive at the World Cup<\/strong> with Portugal in his best form<\/p> Joao Cancelo Offers Himself to Bar\u00e7a and Other European Giants<\/h2>
