There was a time, not long ago, when Joao Cancelo was firmly established as one of the creative heartbeats in the Manchester City side.
Almost exactly a year ago, Cancelo penned a new lucrative five-year contract with the club. “City players have everything they need to reach their full potential, with amazing facilities, world-class teammates and an incredible manager who pushes us every single day,” he said.
“There is nowhere better to play football and it’s a pleasure to work here. I have so much I want to achieve before my career ends, and Manchester City offers me the best chance of fulfilling my ambitions.”
