João Cancelo linked with Barça right-back vacancy
Earlier speculation suggested Barcelona was not pursuing the right-back slot, but recent reports from Sport claim Barça aims to strengthen that position.

Bayern’s non-exercise of the €70 million buy option also factors into the potential deal. Cancelo’s contract runs with Manchester City until 2027.
