According to a recent report from Fabrizio Romano, Manchester City will open negotiations with Joao Cancelo over a new contract in the new year.
The 27-year-old full-back joined City from Juventus back in 2019 and has been one of their most influential figures ever since. It’s clear to see that Pep Guardiola has a lot of trust in him and while he’s believed to be riding a six-year deal, City want to tie him down with an even bigger contract that will deter some top clubs around Europe from going after him.
There are few defenders in the league, let alone in world football, who can do what he can do for City, and he s likely to prove that again when they take on Wolves this weekend.
With five wins in a row behind them, this is the kind of run that can be attributed to a lot of things with Cancelo being located towards the top of that list.
