In a huge development, Fabrizio Romano is reporting that Barcelona and Manchester City defender Joao Cancelo have reached an agreement over personal terms.
Talks are now ongoing between the two clubs over the structure of the deal that would see Cancelo move to Catalonia this summer.
Cancelo has been Xavi’s main target since January
It is no secret that Xavi Hernandez and Barcelona are pushing to sign a new right-back this summer to address what has been a concerning position in the squad.
While several board members, including new director Deco, have been pushing for Ivan Fresneda’s signing, Xavi has been insistent on Cancelo.
