Joao Cancelo returns to Al-Hilal training as Barcelona talks continue

Joao Cancelo has returned to Al-Hilal training as negotiations over a possible permanent move to Barcelona continue. According to GOAL, the Saudi club has registered the Portugal international for the new season and assigned him the No. 20 shirt, reinforcing his current status. Cancelo reportedly remains keen on returning to Barcelona after previous loan spells at the club.

However, financial and administrative issues have delayed an agreement between the two clubs. Al-Hilal are also seeking to recover part of their investment in the defender. Talks remain ongoing, with both sides hoping to resolve the situation before the transfer window closes.
