The Portugal international has joined the German side on loan from Manchester City until the end of the season with a view to a permanent transfer.
There have been reports that Cancelo had become a disruptive figure in the dressing room after falling out of favour, but Guardiola would not substantiate those rumours.
The City manager said: "He is a guy who needs to play to be happy. We decided, all three parties, for him to go to Munich."
