Joao Félix and Cancelo 'respond' to FC Barcelona's 'wink'

Joao Félix and Joao Cancelo officially ceased to be FC Barcelona players on June 30, once their respective loans with the Catalan club ended. The Catalan club would not look unfavorably on the return of the two footballers, especially that of the right-back, whose return is one of the main open fronts in the offices of Spotify Camp Nou, but so far there have been no significant movements in this regard.

For their part, both Joao Félix and Joao Cancelo also have the Barcelona username tagged on their Instagram profile. In addition, the still Atlético de Madrid striker still has his profile photo wearing the Blaugrana shirt, a situation that is, to say the least, curious, taking into account that the footballer returned to training with the colchonero team this week and above all because right now he is an Atlético player for all purposes.

By his part, so much Félix as I Cancel also have labelled in his profile of Instagram the name of user of the Barcelona entity. Besides, the for now attacker of the Athletic of Madrid still has put his photo of profile dressing the T-shirt blaugrana, situation that results, what less, curious, taking in account that the footballer reincorporó to the trainings of the picture colchonero during this week.

Their operations are 'stalled'

Although Barça's intention is to have the two players back next season, the truth is that their signings are very complicated. In the case of Joao Felix, Atletico Madrid's demands are excessively high, and faced with the 'pressure' from clubs like Benfica and the possible arrival of Nico Williams and Dani Olmo, the Catalans have taken the priority off his operation, 'cooling off' his return more and more.

The case of Joao Cancelo is similar to that of his compatriot. Manchester City is willing to loan him out as long as the agreement includes a mandatory purchase option, while the Catalans were hoping to arrange a loan with a non-mandatory purchase option. In addition, the 'skyblues' would prefer to get rid of the full-back permanently and have valued his transfer at 30 million, a figure that Barça will not reach and that has 'frozen' his return to Barcelona.
