Bernardo Silva has admitted that the absence of Joao Cancelo is being felt by the Manchester City dressing room.
Cancelo joined Bayern Munich on loan until the end of the season on the final day of the January transfer window after falling out with City manager Pep Guardiola. Bayern have an option to make the move permanent for £61.5million in the summer, although the club’s sporting director, Hasan Salihamidzic, has suggested that a deal on those terms would be "difficult" to complete.
The Portugal full-back has made an immediate impact at Bayern, registering an assist inside 18 minutes on his debut and contributing another one in his second appearance on Sunday. City’s start to life without Cancelo did not start well, with a 1-0 defeat at Tottenham coming on the same day Bayern beat Wolfsburg 4-2.
