Joao Cancelo has completed his move to Bayern Munich – and the Manchester City statement suggests he might have played his final game for the club.
Cancelo has joined Bayern on loan until the end of the season with the German club holding the option to make it permanent for £61.5million. The 28-year-old full-back moved on January transfer deadline day after falling out with City manager Pep Guardiola.
Guardiola had left Cancelo on the bench for the past three City matches after criticising his dip in performances since the World Cup. Cancelo was furious with his fall down the pecking order, behind 18-year-old academy graduate Rico Lewis, and asked his agent Jorge Mendes to find him a new club.
