Juan Laporta plans to return the former Barcelona player in January, and believes that his return will help solve two major problems for Hansi Flick

The Barcelona Club is seeking to strengthen its ranks in the winter transportation market to solve the problem of the lack of replacements in the left and right back centers.

The club focuses on hiring an experienced player who has previously brilliant in the ranks of the team, to provide defensive depth and diversify tactical options. This step may contribute to improving performance and meeting the team’s needs this season.

According to information from the Spanish newspaper “El Nacional ”, Juan Laporta intends to reinforce the ranks of the Barcelona team, and one of his old acquaintances has been placed on his list of goals: Joao Cancilo.

The Portuguese back, which left a positive impression during his secondment to the team last season, may be the solution to two main problems that coach Hansi Flick faces today: a lack of defensive depth on the right and left sides.

Barcelona currently includes Jules Conde and Alejandro Baldi as two basic options in the left and right back centers. However, the absence of reliable replacements is a concern for the German coach, especially in a season full of commitments in various competitions. Thus, Joao Cancilo, who is currently playing with the crescent in Saudi Arabia, is an ideal option to support the two centers as a versatile and experienced player.

Joao Cancilo’s desire to return to Barcelona is a critical factor in this process. According to sources close to the player, Kansilo holds good memories from his previous period in the Catalan club, where he quickly adapted and became an important part of the team’s lineup. Moreover, Kansilo believes that his playing style is well suited to Barcelona’s acquisition and attack style.

For his part, La Porta believes that the return of Cancilo will not only reinforce the team, but will also send a strong message about the club’s ambitions in the transportation market. Although the crescent is not ready to give up the player easily, the President of Barcelona is confident that the player’s desire to return and the good relationship between the two sides may facilitate an agreement.

Tactically, Hansi Flick sees that Kansilo is not the ideal booster because of his bad reputation in the teams he has previously played and left each time inappropriately because of his differences with his colleagues and coaches.
