Portuguese international said he was “very proud” to have represented Barcelona, ​​even though it was only for one season

Making his first season at Al Hilal , owned by Jorge Jesus, João Cancelo spent last season on loan from Manchester City to Barcelona , ​​and his desire was to continue with the Catalans, also in 2024/25, but that was not possible.

However, the Portuguese international has no regrets, on the contrary, stating that he always wanted to play for the Catalans and that he fulfilled a dream, despite the advice of his compatriot Pepe …

“ Pepe told me that one day I had to play for Real Madrid , but I was a Barça fan . I am very happy with my time at Barcelona , ​​because I can say that I played for the club I always wanted to play for. I am very proud…”, he said.
