Barcelona already knows how much they need to pay if they want to buy Cancelo and João Félix permanently
Athletes are adapted to the club’s routine even with arrival at the end of the transfer window
Duo is seen as perfect to play in the game plan proposed by Xavi Hernández
In the final moments of the European summer transfer window, Barcelona managed to announce the arrival of full-back João Cancelo and striker João Félix , players of enormous quality but who had to deal with disciplinary problems. Because the start of both in Catalonia is considered very positive.
Now, the question remains: will Barça, who signed both on loan, want and/or be able to acquire the duo permanently at the end of the 2023/2024 season? Internally, there is already the conviction that both are fully adapted to the routine of the culé team. There are those who even say that both were created to play in the playing philosophy of Xavi Hernández’s Barça.
From this to purchase, however, there are some steps to be taken. Barcelona is going through public financial difficulties, but the time will inevitably come when it will need to decide whether or not to invest in Félix and Cancelo – from Manchester City and Atlético de Madrid , respectively . From Europe comes information that the Catalan leadership has begun to maintain contacts with the English and Spanish. For the full-back, City would accept receiving 25 million euros . As for the colchoneros, in principle, they would not give up 80 million euros to sell the striker.
