Pep makes shock transfer u-turn on Man City star

Manchester City manager Pep Guardiola has seemingly changed his mind about selling one player before the transfer window closes.

Joao Cancelo spent last season on loan at LALIGA giants FC Barcelona but is currently back with the Citizens.

Reports claim that Barcelona want Cancelo on a permanent transfer this time, but Guardiola has hinted that the full-back could stay at the Etihad.

"He's training with us," Guardiola told a news conference on Friday.

"We will see, maybe stay, maybe go on loan. I don't know yet. He's training with us, behaving really well in the training sessions. He loves to play football. We will see."

When asked if he could stay for the season, Guardiola replied, "It can happen, yeah."

"In training we say hello and talk," Guardiola said. "About what's going to happen, it depends on his agents and the club. In the end, if he has to stay we will treat him like all the other players like we have done since I have been here.

"With respect, and try to take the best for his huge qualities that he has. I never doubt his qualities for one second. But I don't know what is going to happen."
