Shocking deal! Cancelo has completed his move from Manchester City to Bayern
Joao Cancelo has moved to Bayern Munich on loan. After falling out with Manchester City over a dispute with manager Pep Guardiola, the loan move is expected to lead to a permanent deal worth £61m. pound
Cancelo expressed frustration at his seemingly restricted on-field roles under Guardiola, leading to an altercation in the dressing room. The feud between the pair began after Cancelo was denied a game in the FA Cup fourth-round win over Manchester City against Arsenal, despite the result. The performance was strong last season, but Cancelo found himself stripped of the starting line-up and he expressed his disappointment.
Upon joining Bayern Munich, Cancelo said: “Bayern is a great club. One of the best clubs in the world I am motivated to play with these talented players and chase success. I will give my best for Bayern.”
Manchester City’s lack of options at full-back has caused concern among City fans, with only Kyle Walker, Rico Luis and Sergio at the moment. Gomez is the only remaining option, however Pep and the club are confident in their options and have no plans to strengthen at full-back before the winter transfer window closes.
Although he came out to complain that he didn’t have much playing time. But Cancelo himself has made 26 appearances this season. 16 starts in the Premier League and five in the Champions League. As for last season He played a total of 52 games in all competitions. And has been named in the PFA Team of the Year in the Premier League.
Bayern Munich director Hasan Salihamidzic expressed his excitement about the signing of Cancelo, saying: “Jao fits perfectly into our system. With his attacking style and experience I am confident that he will help us win the championship Bayern Munich holds the Bundesliga leader position, one point ahead of Union Berlin.
Guardiola’s relationship with Cancelo was strained during the World Cup in Qatar. Which ultimately led to a transfer to Bayern Munich, and with the title race intensifying with Arsenal leaders. It seems that Manchester City fans are hoping their beloved team will improve further with the signing of a full-back to fill the absence of full-backs. Portuguese national
