João Cancelo finally finds a smile again in Catalonia. Sunday afternoon, against Levante, FC Barcelona achieved the essential during this 25th day of La Liga (3-0), with a clear victory and a first place in the standings regained, thus ahead of Real Madrid (2nd). After the match, the Portuguese left-back, decisive passer on the Catalans’ second goal, sent a nice message to his partners.
“It’s the best locker room I’ve ever had in my entire career. It was already like that in 2023. That’s also partly why I came back”he notified, after his visit to Saudi Arabia with Al-Hilal. Little featured by Hansi Flick this season in La Liga (only two starts), the former Manchester City player once again demonstrated on the pitch that his offensive contribution was important within the German’s eleven. Capable of returning to defend quickly like a twirling piston, the 31-year-old does not seem to have lost his effectiveness.
