Pep Guardiola has opened up on the rumors linking Joao Cancelo with an exit.
Cancelo, who joined Manchester City from Juventus in the summer of 2019, has been linked with a move to his former club Valencia, in the January transfer window.
And speaking about the rumors Guardiola said, as quoted by Daily Mail, : "This player we bought him for many years, not for six months, but what happens happens.
"As I said, I don’t know what will happen in a few weeks and in the summer, we will discuss. If a player wants to leave, it’s simple, the agent has to call to the club, arrive at an agreement, and he will leave – and if he doesn’t get an agreement he will stay here.
"The rumours are rumours, they what they are, until the agents call or we call, I don’t take any interest about that.
"In the last month we’ve had the best Kyle (Walker) and I give continuity to him. Joao is adapting and he has a special quality and he can help us in many, many games."
During this season, Cancelo has made 16 appearances so far with having netted one goal.
