Arsenal could steal Man City's Joao Cancelo from Barcelona

If Barcelona cannot afford to sign Manchester City's Joao Cancelo on a long-term contract, Arsenal is allegedly prepared to make a summer raid for the full-back. Cancelo has a contract with Man City through June 2027, but after losing favour with Pep Guardiola, it appears that he will not be playing at the Etihad Stadium in the future.

The Sun claims that Barca's financial issues prevent them from agreeing to pay Man City's £40 million asking price for Cancelo. It's currently being said that the Catalan behemoths are unwilling to pay anything more than a borrowing fee.
