Angelino defends Man City teammate Joao Cancelo after difficult year at the club
straight to your inboxAngelino has laughed off suggestions that Joao Cancelo has been a flop at Manchester City and suggested that he needs more regular game time to show his quality.Cancelo arrived from Juventus last summer for £60m, with Danilo going the other way for £34m in a deal that was related but not technically linked. The Portugal international aimed to put pressure on Kyle Walker and establish himself as the No.1 right-back at the Etihad.However, Cancelo has struggled to adapt while Walker has maintained a high level of performance and manager Pep Guardiola did little to play down speculation that the former Juventus defender could leave as early as the January window.
