Man City in Negotiations for Juventus Cancelo

By Daily Sports on August 2, 2019

Manchester City have reopened negotiations with Juventus over a transfer for right-back Joao Cancelo, Goal understands.

Juventus sporting director Fabio Paratici has been in England to discuss Paulo Dybala’s possible move to Manchester United, but Cancelo’s proposed transfer was also on his order of business.

The Serie A champions value Cancelo at around €55 million (£50m/$61m), but City will look to lower this sum by adding Danilo into the deal.

If such a swap deal does transpire, it could mean City would end up paying closer to €25 million (£23m/$28m) for the 25-year-old.

City were heavily linked with Cancelo at the beginning of the summer transfer window, with the Portugal international seen as an ideal addition in the full-back role.

That interest appeared to have cooled as right-back Kyle Walker signed a new five-year contract at the Etihad earlier in the summer, but Guardiola is now keen to add a third permanent signing of the window.

Cancelo’s potential arrival would follow the club-record deal for midfielder Rodri and the return of Angelino from PSV, signed to provide competition at left-back. (Goal)
