Joao Cancelo has opened up on his Manchester City exit and insisted that any talk suggesting he fell out with boss Pep Guardiola is a "complete lie".
The Portugal international joined German giants Bayern Munich on loan for the remainder of the season at the tail-end of the January transfer window in a move that sparked plenty of surprise from fans and pundits alike. As a result, the rumour mill went into overdrive with theories that Cancelo's relationship with Guardiola had suffered a breakdown.
It had been reported that the pair came to verbal blows after Cancelo found out he was not in the starting line-up for the FA Cup fourth round clash against Arsenal. However, the full-back did not say as much and instead chose to thank the City boss, while claiming he departed simply in search of game time.
