Joao Cancelo developed a fiery reputation at Man City, according to reports, while his continued outbursts after being dropped by Pep Guardiola were the 'straw that broke the camel's back' at the club.
Cancelo's falling out with Guardiola - reported by Sportsmail on Monday - is one of the biggest stories of the transfer window and came as a huge shock given the Portuguese defender's standing as one of the best in his position.
But the wing-back - who is set to move on loan to Bayern Munich - has seen his game time reduced significantly this season despite being named in the PFA team of the year last season - with the 28-year-old left enraged about being dropped on a number of occasions, claims the Athletic.
