Barcelona 'reopen talks with Manchester City to sign Joao Cancelo' after he was left out of squad for win over Burnley

Barcelona have reopened talks with Manchester City to sign Joao Cancelo, according to reports

Much uncertainty hangs over the 29-year-old's future at the Premier League champions, with Cancelo having spent the second half of last season on loan at Bayern Munich after falling out of favour with Pep Guardiola.

Mail Sport reported back in January that the Portugal international had been involved in a furious training ground bust-up with the Spanish manager, which sparked his shock exit from the club.

But it now appears that he could be set to depart the Etihad once again, with Fabrizio Romano reporting that Barcelona are in contact with City and Cancelo's representatives.
