BORJA VALERO REVEALS CANCELO REFUSED SPALLETTI’S ORDERS AT INTER​

Napoli
Former Inter and Fiorentina midfielder Borja Valero reveals Joao Cancelo refused to play as a left-back when he was under contract with the Nerazzurri, refusing Luciano Spalletti’s orders.

The Portugal international spent one season at Inter before joining Juventus in the summer of 2018.

Luciano Spalletti was in charge of the Nerazzurri at that time, but despite an impressive season that saw Inter return to the Champions League, the Italian coach and Cancelo did not always share the same view.

“It makes me smile to see him [Cancelo] play every game as a left-back under Guardiola,” Borja Valero, a member of that Inter side, told DAZN.

“Back in 2018, Spalletti wanted to play him in on the left, but he said: ‘Mister, I am not a left-back.’ The coach didn’t agree with it but had realised that [Cancelo could play on the left] early.”
Seems unprofessional to me. Spalletti lacking ballz?

I remember that incident. It had attracted lots of attention at the time. Spalletti started Cancelo as a lb in one match, player didn't like it and fought with coach in training the following week which got him benched i the following match. He never played again as a lb for us.

Funny thing is Allegri used him a lot as a lb at Juve and of course that's where Pep uses him.

Cancelo didn’t really get on with Spalletti or Allegri. That’s why he lasted a season at both clubs despite being a great player. That and financially neither club could “afford” to keep him.

It looks like he's been put on the market by City. Sadly we are broke. He would have been a hell of an upgrade over Dumfries.

Can we get Mazraoui :einstein:

I think Cuadrado is more realistic and he is only 34!

Great deal fron Bayern!

🚨 João Cancelo is starting to get frustrated by his situation at Bayern Munich.

He is already unhappy with his playing time. 👀

We can offer him a regular spot, but I don't know who will pay his salary.

Dumfries will leave as well, but I'm not sure if Man City will be opened for a loan, as we cannot afford to buy him outright.
Otherwise, I'm pretty sure that Cancelo wouldn't mind Inter's return if we make CL next season.

Dumfries -> Cancelo would be equal to, if not more so, the upgrade we made by going Candreva/D’Ambro -> Hakimi.

Anyway, also not happening. Wages are insane and City would need to loan him again.

His head is hot and if Inzaghi benches him like Dumfries he wants out after 1 match
