It is not 25 million, the impressive amount that Guardiola asks Barcelona for Cancelo

FC Barcelona is amazed by the level of Joao Cancelo. The Portuguese player is on loan from Manchester City and is one of the players the club is most interested in acquiring his transfer next season. However, the economic factor is an issue for the Catalan team, so they will have to analyze the viability of the operation.

This past day of the Champions League, Barça was in serious trouble.
Xavi's men have had performances questioned by the press for several weeks and on top of that Porto was beating them in Montjuic. However, one player decided to ignore all the criticism and lift the spirits of his team. Thanks to a goal and an assist, Joao Cancelo helped FC Barcelona qualify for the Champions League round of 16 two years later.

Although he arrived as a world-class solution for the Catalan team's right back, the Portuguese showed the best version of him on the left flank. His last performances on the right wing were highly noted, especially due to the poor defensive image that Barça has had this season. Xavi decided to act on it, placing Ronald Araújo on the wing and moving Cancelo to the other wing. Against Porto it worked perfectly, and it is difficult to think of the Blaugrana's comeback without the outstanding performance of Joao on the left wing.

How much is Joao Cancelo worth?

Although the winter market has not yet started, it is already rumored the amount that Manchester City would ask FC Barcelona for Joao Cancelo in June 2024. According to Mundo Deportivo, the Portuguese's valuation for the 'citizen' team is 25 million of euros. However, Diario Sport expresses that the situation is more complicated. The Catalan newspaper reported that the English value the Portuguese at 50 million euros and expect his market value to increase further.
