Well, it’s pretty clear that he’s being shipped out because he’s playing a big part in causing it tbh.
Pep even referred to him as Mr Cancelo the other day and said ‘almost’ everyone was happy for Ake doing well at left back but then stopped himself from continuing.
Ake gets injured we are fucked. Gomez who can't defend at left back in a title fight. We have just weakened ourselves. Our season now relies on if Ake can continuously stay fit. Gomez is shocking defensively

No way Bayern pay 70m for him in the summer, so we'll end up having him back
Huge talent but the balls of a pussy, not sorry to se him go, never took to the guy.

Bayern offer loan with option to buy...roughly translated as...when the loan is over we will offer another loan deal having decreased the players value as 6 months less on his contract. Stump up Bayern. Gutted if he leaves. Maybe that break in and him getting beaten up by the robbers made up his mind to start again somewhere else. Our most skilfull left/right back.

Joao Cancelo set for Bayern loan
Manchester City defender Joao Cancelo is set to join Bayern Munich on loan. Cancelo’s loan deal includes a buy option of €70million (£61.6m, $76.3m), with the German champions long-term admirers of the 28-year-old. He has now arrived in Munich to have a medical and sign his contract. He has...theathletic.com
I know we speculate a lot on here and some of it is hearsay but seems pretty much confirmed now that Cancelo was a major problem for the manager and the team. We’ll miss him in the CL run (maybe?) but can’t help but feel it will settle things down a bit now. I’d actually heard Bernardo was living with him so maybe Bernardo will just take over his house for the time being.
We dont know anything let alone major problem , lets not be stupid and demonise the guy
Unless you've got a much closer relationship to him than everyone else here, you don't know his personality. You see him play football for 90 minutes once or twice a week, that's not knowing him.
Pep knows his personality, and heavily implied after Friday's game he's the only player in the squad who wouldn't be happy for Aké.
He knows his personality, and he has sent him packing.
Won’t he be cup tied?

City would say that (and actually believe it) if we didn't have a single full back.
It's a bizarre blind spot at the club which makes absolutely no sense.

I like Cancelo, he's been a great signing for us, he as the odd brain fart but he's not the only one, to not replace him would be crazy.
Not sure anyone is demonizing him, he is just a very deep and strange dude.
Played well in his last start against the scum to be fair but agree he’s had a terrible season

Ricky Holden always looked like he was about to cough up a lung every time he broke into a gentle jog.

He also had problems with Portugal and was dropped for Dalot who isn’t at his level when on form.
Bayern have played big money for defenders in the past, they might feel like doing Jorge Mendes a favour, and they're one of only 2 or 3 clubs in the world who can afford to take all of the positives from an in from Cancelo and not worry when he's bad because they spend 5x more than the second best club in their country.
