Barcelona haven't given up on signing Manchester City's Joao Cancelo
Barcelona remain eager to sign Manchester City defender Joao Cancelo.
<p>
Barcelona are reportedly preparing a new and improved offer for Manchester City full-back Joao Cancelo. </p>
<p>
The Spanish club previously expressed interest in the Portugal international during the January transfer window but were unable to finalise a deal. </p>
<p>
Instead, Cancelo joined Bayern Munich on loan for the remainder of the 2022/23 season. </p>
<p>
However, Bayern decided against making the move permanent, and as a result, Cancelo has returned to Manchester City. </p>
<p>
Bayern have now turned their attention to Cancelo's City teammate, Kyle Walker, in their pursuit of a new right-back. </p>
<p>
It appears that both Cancelo and Manchester City have little desire to continue their association. Manager Pep Guardiola has been adamant about moving Cancelo out of the club. </p>
<p>
While Arsenal have also expressed interest in Cancelo, Barcelona have intensified their efforts to secure the player's signature. </p>
<p>
Despite their financial uncertainties, any potential deal would need approval from La Liga. </p>
<p>
Nonetheless, the probable sale of Ousmane Dembele to PSG would provide Barcelona with the financial flexibility to pursue Cancelo, as acquiring a new right-back is considered one of their top priorities. </p>
