Manchester City is anticipating the return of two players to the club this summer after their respective loan spells in Europe. Joao Cancelo, who was loaned out after falling out of favor with Pep Guardiola, spent time at Bayern Munich and FC Barcelona. Kalvin Phillips also left City for West Ham United in the January transfer window.

While their long-term futures at Manchester City are uncertain, a report suggests that both Cancelo and Phillips are expected to return to the Etihad Stadium after their loan deals expire. This information comes from Manchester City insider ‘Tolmie’s Hairdoo’ on X, indicating that the club anticipates their return.

Barcelona is facing financial difficulties and may struggle to afford a permanent move for Cancelo, who could command a fee of around €50 million. Phillips’ performances at West Ham have been lackluster, leading to doubts about a permanent transfer to the London club unless there is a significant improvement.

Overall, City is preparing for the return of Cancelo and Phillips this summer, as they navigate the challenges of securing permanent deals with their loan clubs. The players’ futures at City may depend on the financial situations of both clubs and their performance levels during their loan spells. Manchester City will be monitoring the situation closely as they plan for the upcoming season.
