Man City star could leave club if Real Madrid pursue move

Manchester City loan Joao Cancelo has hinted at a permanent departure from the club.

The Portuguese international is currently spending the second half of the 2022/2023 campaign on loan at Bundesliga giants Bayern Munich.

There was speculation about his departure from the Etihad on deadline day, but the player and Pep Guardiola stressed that there were no hard feelings involved in Cancelo’s departure.

The 28-year-old had been a standout player for City in recent seasons, playing a pivotal role in their back-to-back Premier League winning campaigns.

However, Cancelo could be looking to seal a permanent move away from England this summer when his loan spell comes to an end. According to Movistar through Fabrizio Romano, the defender said: “I have not received any proposal from Real Madrid in January, no… if the rumors say that, I don’t know.

“If a club like Real Madrid loves you, it’s a pleasure, it also means that I’m doing things right.”

There is also the possibility that Bayern will try to keep him beyond the summer if he impresses over the next five months.

If that’s the case, Guardiola is likely to be in the market for a fullback in the next transfer window.
