Joao Cancelo has stirred controversy with his latest social media activity which took aim at parent club Manchester City. The Portuguese right-back, currently on loan at Barcelona from City, participated in a blind-ranking challenge – a popular trend where participants rank randomly appearing players from one to 10 without knowing who will appear next.
In an unexpected twist, the first player to be revealed was Josko Gvardiol, who effectively was Cancelo's replacement at City.
Rather than offering any pleasantries, Cancelo immediately ranked the Croatian at the bottom of his list. The former City man then proceeded to rank his top five players in the challenge, listing Roberto Carlos, Frank Lampard, Antoine Griezmann, and Hernan Crespo in his top four, while reserving the top spot for Chelsea's Thiago Silva.
This latest incident adds to the ongoing tension between Cancelo and City, which dates back several years, reports the Mirror.
