JOAO CANCELO WILL BE KEY AT THE OFFENSIVE LEVEL
Barça 'counts' on Joao Cancelo's assists
At FC Barcelona there are many expectations with the arrival of Joao Cancelo, who with confidence can once again be one of the most imposing right-backs in European football
The incorporation of Joao Cancel to the FC Barcelona has generated a lot of expectations and, especially, illusion. It arrived in quality of loan by a pertinent season of the Manchester City to turn into the right side headline of the team of Xavi Hernández. It was the most weakened position, in which up to now there was not any natural player. His presence subtracts a headache for the culés.
Still it remains for knowing how will configure the trainer egarense his defence and how will deliver the responsibilities. It does not be necessary to overlook that, up to now, although it plays "in paper" with four defenders, Alejandro Balde finishes like an attacker more. It plays in a much more advanced position and leaves a defence of three 'attentive' in front of the presence of the rivals. With I Cancel, a side that also is used to to remain in attack, it will be necessary to see how organises to his Xavi.
Decisions and 'securities' by in front
In the Barça have to find the formula so that, with two sides with offensive tendencies, can have a balance in the retaguardia. It will be one of the so many tasks that will have the staff technical that, without place to doubts, sees to Cancel like one of the big alternative to improve the attack and add assistances, on the same line that has come registering in previous seasons.
In the last three courses, Cancel has delivered 27 assistances (six in the 2020/21, ten in the 2021/22 and eleven in the 22/23 between the Manchester City and Bayern of Munich). To put it in context, as it remembers 'Sportive World', in the last three seasons Ousmane Dembélé added 23 assistances. The contribution of the Portuguese can be key, especially if it begins to be headline immediately.
Full confidence in Cancel
In the Barça see to Joao Cancel like a player that can contribute a lot in this season. It is a footballer that happened long in the diary of the blaugrana and that has arrived in conditions very favourable, by what will look for to take advantage of it to the maximum while they have it. They are conscious that it can contribute a lot in the offensive plot and that also will be key for the defence.
