Joao Cancelo 'Completes' £32m-Plus-Danilo Move to Manchester City With Juventus

Manchester City are reported to have finalised a £32m move for Juventus full-back Joao Cancelo, with Danilo heading to Turin as a makeweight in the deal.

The Spaniard joined Juve from Valencia for £36m last summer and managed 27 starts in all competitions, with his temperament and one or two injury issues meaning he was never fully trusted by Max Allegri.

The issues seem to have transposed over to Maurizio Sarri, with reports in Italy frequently claiming Cancelo is behind Mattia De Sciglio on the depth chart. City, meanwhile, have been after a full-back for much of the window, and were heavily linked with Cancelo earlier in the summer.
