Joao Cancelo lost his place in the Bayern Munich side due to his performances in training and in matches.
That is the assessment of Bayern Sporting director Hasan Salihamidzic, who commented on Cancelo's omission from the starting line-up in their Champions League last-16 second leg win over Paris Saint-Germain on Wednesday.
Cancelo started his first four games for Bayern since moving on loan from Manchester City, but has played just 18 minutes across the last three games and has started on the bench for four games in succession. He came off the bench against PSG to set up the tie's third goal, but was brought back down to earth after the game when Salihamidzic spoke to the media.
