"Barcelona are eager to keep Cancelo on but know it won't be easy as finances remain tight. The club have been hoping to sign Cancelo on a free transfer even though he still has a year left to run on his Al-Hilal contract."
"According to Mundo Deportivo, Al-Hilal are 'very reluctant to facilitate his departure' and will not even think about starting talks until the end of the season."
"Much will depend on whether coach Simone Inzaghi continues. If he does, then Al-Hilal will try to convince Cancelo to come back and see out his contract."
"If Cancelo insists on an exit, then Al-Hilal will try to sell for a fee of €15 million. Barcelona, meanwhile, will hope that Cancelo's agent Jorge Mendes can help them out."
Barcelona is facing challenges in retaining Joao Cancelo, who has performed well since joining on loan from Al-Hilal. The club aims to secure him on a free transfer, but Al-Hilal is resistant to negotiations until the season ends. Cancelo has a year left on his contract, and Al-Hilal may attempt to convince him to stay. If Cancelo seeks an exit, Al-Hilal could demand €15 million. Barcelona hopes that Cancelo's agent, Jorge Mendes, can facilitate a favorable outcome.
