Joao Cancelo has hinted that his future could lie at Barcelona after winning the LaLiga title.
The Portuguese full-back admitted he has already made a decision on his future, but stopped short of confirming whether he will remain at Barca beyond his loan spell from Al Hilal.
“I know what I want. I cannot say it publicly, but we will see what happens from now on,” said Cancelo.
The 31-year-old described Barcelona as a “very special club” and revealed he had supported the club even before joining. His latest league triumph saw him make history as the first player to win league titles in four of Europe’s five major leagues — Italy, England, Germany and Spain.
Cancelo also aimed criticism at Al Hilal, claiming the Saudi club failed to keep promises.
“There were people who did not tell me the truth,” he said. “They told me they were going to register me in the Saudi League squad, then the moment of truth came and they did not do it.
“But I am always the one with the bad personality. At least I keep my word. I am a man of my word, I never change my word for anything, I have always been the same, my personality is the same, I am direct.”
