Portuguese defender Joao Cancelo shared his emotions after returning to Barcelona on loan from Saudi Arabia’s Al Hilal until the end of the season.

“I came here to help Barça and win titles. I met the team this morning and they received me very well,” Cancelo said.

The footballer admitted that Barcelona is the only club that gives him goosebumps when signing a contract:

“I can promise dedication, work and everything I have for this team,” added the Portuguese.

Cancelo also stated that he was sad about not winning trophies with Barcelona before and hopes to rectify that now:

“I didn’t win titles in my first period and that’s what I want now.”

This is Cancelo’s second spell in charge of the Catalans. In the 2023/24 season, he played 42 matches, scored 4 goals and provided 5 assists. At the end of his loan, he moved to Al Hilal, where he made 45 appearances in a season and a half.

“Whoever knows me knows that all my idols played here. What I feel for this club is very special,” added the Portuguese, emphasizing the emotional importance of performances at Camp Nou and the desire to help the team.

Before the first period in Barcelona, ​​Cancelo played for Benfica, Valencia, Inter, Juventus, Manchester City and played on loan for Bayern.
