'I will take less Money' - Barcelona star pushes for Camp Nou stay

João Cancelo has revealed he is ready to take a significant pay cut to complete a permanent transfer to FC Barcelona this summer.

The Portuguese full-back is currently on loan at the Catalan giants from on-loan from Al-Hilal, where he joined at the start of the 2023–24 season.

Cancelo made his intentions clear in an interview with La Gazzetta dello Sport, expressing his happiness at the club and his desire to remain.

He said, “For me, it's a pleasure to play for Barcelona. There are many great players in the squad. I am very happy with my life in Barcelona and with the club.”

With Barcelona still managing financial constraints, Cancelo acknowledged that his current wages could be a stumbling block, but insisted he is willing to compromise.

He added, “The truth is that I would be willing to give up a significant amount of money. It hasn't been a problem for me, and it won't be a problem to stay here.”
