admin Barcelona move forward with key Manchester City transfer
In the dynamic world of football transfers, Barcelona appear to be edging closer to securing a central position for their defensive squad. According to the latest updates, they have made important moves related to Manchester City’s talented full-back.
Is there a transaction?
Football Transfers reports that Barcelona has essentially reached an agreement with Manchester City for the transfer of Joao Cancelo. The two European giants have agreed in principle on a transfer fee of 35 million euros for the Portuguese defender.However, it should be noted that Barcelona’s financial constraints and their obligation to comply with FFP regulations in Spain may require the player to be sold before this deal can go through.
Valuable Question
There is an interesting subplot that develops in this story. With Cancelo’s current performance trajectory, Manchester City may reconsider the price. Not long ago, during the January transfer window, The Citizens set a high price of 70 million euros for Cancelo. This was also the time when Bayern Munich entered the race to sign this defender, but ultimately lost when Barcelona proved more decisive.
Cancelo at Camp Nou
After finding himself out of Pep Guardiola’s plans, Cancelo turned his attention to Barcelona in a loan move during the summer transfer window. And it didn’t take long for the 29-year-old to prove his worth, scoring 2 goals and 1 assist in just 3 appearances. So it’s no surprise that Xavi wants to make this decision permanent.
The Barcelona manager recently reflected on his team’s character, especially after their remarkable 3-2 win over Celta Vigo which took them to the top of La Liga. “We didn’t play well (but) created grandeur, showing a winning character,” Xavi emphasized.Adding, he said: “Historically we have missed it… it shows the generational change we have, they haven’t given up yet, the two morons at home. I think this generation will fight to the end.
In a sector where football relationships can change rapidly, it will be fascinating to see how the Joao Cancelo saga plays out, especially with the growing dynamic between Barcelona and Manchester City.
