Joao Cancelo knows Christian Pulisic potential as Chelsea comeback begins

Joao Cancelo will be hoping that Bayern Munich don't draw Chelsea in the Champions League quarter-finals after his loan side moved past Paris Saint-Germain on Wednesday. The Portugal international moved to Germany from Manchester City in January on loan with an option to buy and has already impressed at his new club.

That doesn't mean that he will be relishing the chance to play anyone in the next round though. 2020 winners Bayern looked strong both home and away against PSG but Cancelo has already told the Blues that they posses one of his toughest opponents.

He was part of the 2021 side that were beaten by Chelsea in Porto and has a mixed record against the club since signing for City in 2019. After winning the first two matches he lost the next two before finishing off with back-to-back wins. He was subbed off at half time in the 1-0 win back in January too.
