Still looking for reinforcements for the season, Barcelona forwarded the loan signing of an important defender worldwide, according to journalist
Despite being close to the end, the European transfer window continues to move players between the main clubs in the world. In view of this, the barcelona is close to completing yet another signing for the season that has started with the arrival of João Cancelo to his squad in the coming days, according to Fabrizio Romano.
According to the journalist specializing in transfers, Manchester City and Barça reached an agreement for the Portuguese to arrive in Catalonia on loan, with an option to buy. The player must travel to Spain this Monday, the 28th, to undergo medical examinations and sign a contract.
After a few winning seasons at Manchester City, a falling out with manager Pep Guardiola undermined the player’s following in England. With that, Bayern became interested in the athlete, who spent the last few months in Germany, but without being able to establish himself in the team, thus returning to the current European champions.
Thus, the pre-season was done at City’s CT, but it was already clear that Cancelo would not stay and looking for an alternative for the athlete on the market. Barcelona have always been interested, but the financial difficulty was the biggest barrier in the deal, which shouldn’t be a problem anymore, since the loan was agreed.
