The millions of euros that do not let Joao Cancelo sign at FC Barcelona

FC Barcelona seeks to sign Joao Cancelo and has been negotiating with Manchester City for several weeks, but these teams have yet to reach an agreement for the soccer player. The coach Xavi Hernández already wants to work with the defender of the Portugal National Team.

Joao Cancelo continues to train with Manchester City, but coach Pep Guardiola does not want to work with this player during the season, he did not even call him up for the European Super Cup against Seville.

Sport reported that FC Barcelona is looking to sign Joao Cancelo for one season loan with an option to buy but FC Barcelona only wants to pay 25 million euros, while Manchester City wants to receive 45 million euros for the player.

Negotiations have been complicated because this difference of 20 million euros has meant that these two teams do not reach an agreement. Joao Cancelo only played a few games this preseason, but the soccer player has no injury. FC Barcelona wants to sign the defender.

Jorge Mendes is the important person in the negotiation

Jorge Mendes is Joao Cancelo's agent, and the Sport newspaper has reported that this person is looking for FC Barcelona and Manchester City to reach an agreement and that the soccer player can play this season in the Spanish league.
