Joao Cancelo

[Withnail]

They need cash I believe mate. They sell Cancelo for around £50m and are looking to get another one in for around £25m

Cheers pal, let's hope we get him.

Not seen a lot of him, but after watching that You Tube clip he looks brilliant going forward and can deliver a final ball/cross which is a criticism of Walker sometimes. Apologies not read the full thread but why are Juventus prepared to let him go?

That's a good question.
We need money for new signings and there are rumours that he's also being sold for misbehaving.
I doubt we can get a better RB once we've sold him though.

Agreed! He is total class mate :-)

Ur thoughts on Danilo ? He was pretty decent when called upon and versatile . Just couldn't displace Walker though and understandably wants more game time

If we can’t offload Danilo we should just take Cancelo on loan and let Juve pay his wages and we can buy him on the cheap at a later date - isn’t that how you deal with Italian clubs ? Personally, I’m not sure I want to see Danilo go - feels like we haven’t seen the best of him for one reason or another.

I have to admit I know next to nothing about Danilo. There are no talks about us going after him though.
The names I've heard for our new RB are Trippier and Semedo (ugghhh). How is Trippier by the way? I remember when he still played in midfield but I haven't watched him much recently.

Oh and if you're interested, there are rumours Cancelo might leave on the 30th of June (take it with a pinch of salt of course).

He's fine, He has his days but I wouldn't sit up and say he is one of the best RB's in the prem. But he is solid, and reliable

Hes only played a dozen or so games at LB in his career.

Hes not a left back option just like Danilo wasn't.

Which is fine because we have Mendy and Angelino and Zinchenko.

Although clearly a right back I read somewhere he played for Portugal at left back and left midfield in recent games, being one footed does not necessarily rule a player out from being effective on both sides.

 

[Plain Speaking]

I am a bit concerned about the bit in Uffa's post about Cancelo above: "there are rumours that he's also being sold for misbehaving."

I hope his lack of staying at previous clubs is not related to this. We need to maintain squad discipline, harmony etc. As a selling club Juve wouldn't exactly come out with any negatives regarding the player.

I'd prefer to see Danilo stay. He's arguably our best full-back.
