Joao Cancelo's agent Jorge Mendes 'is working to secure him a season-long loan at Barcelona next season and has already spoken to Catalan chiefs'... with the defender 'adamant he will NOT return to Bayern Munich or Manchester City'

Manchester City defender Joao Cancelo is reportedly set for a loan move to Barcelona when he returns from Bayern Munich this summer.

The 28-year-old departed the Etihad in the January transfer window after falling out with Pep Guardiola as he joined Bundesliga giants Bayern Munich.

However, he will not continue with Bayern next season, according to Spanish outlet Sport.

It is believed that he doesn't wish to return to Man City either, and could join Barcelona as an 'ideal destination'.

The report continues to reveal that his agent, Jorge Mendes, was in Barcelona recently to discuss his possible arrival at the Camp Nou.
