Newspaper reports revealed the identity of the player Barcelona prefers to sign this season, between Joao Cancelo and his compatriot Felix.
Barca had signed the duo in the last summer transfer on a one-season loan without an option to buy.
Cancelo joined from Manchester City, while his compatriot Felix came from neighboring Atletico Madrid.
The players have great confidence from the Blaugrana coach, Xavi Hernandez, for what the Portuguese has done with the team since their arrival.
Spanish newspaper “Sport” reports revealed that there are sources within Barcelona who confirm that the desire for Felix to continue is greater than the desire for Cancelo to continue.
The journalist reported that despite the fluctuations in Felix’s performance in the recent period, which the club is aware of, they confirm their desire for him to continue for several reasons:
His appearance in the big matches (Porto – Atletico back and forth…) is the only left winger in the team. Lamine, Rafinha, and Ferran are all in their original position as right wingers. There are no options available on the market.
