Manchester City are heading towards a £60million headache with Portuguese defender Joao Cancelo.
Cancelo will return to the Etihad with Bayern Munich on Tuesday night after manager Pep Guardiola sanctioned a loan move to the Bundesliga club after it became clear that the 28-year-old was becoming a disruptive dressing room interest.
Bayern were also given the option to make the deal permanent - but have already decided that City’s £60million asking price is excessive. The German club want to pay less than half of that - or extend Cancelo’s loan into next season.
