Barcelona set to submit formal bid for Man City's Cancelo

Crucial days for the possible transfer of Joao Cancelo to Barcelona. According to Fabrizio Romano, the Catalan giants are set to make a formal offer to Manchester City for their right-back.

The Portuguese, as reported a few days ago, has agreed personal terms with the 'Cules', who will use part of Dembele's transfer budget from PSG to reach a deal for the Portugal international.

The former Juventus player is likely to join the Catalan club on loan with an option to buy, so that Barcelona could make his transfer permanent next summer, with a more favourable financial situation.

It is worth noting that Joao Cancelo was a key player in Pep Guardiola's plans, although in January last season there seems to have been a dispute between the Portuguese and the Spanish coach and so he left on loan to Bayern Munich until the end of the season.
