Joao Cancelo spoke on Instagram about the video that was circulated on social networks a few days ago.
This weekend, a video emerged showing Joao Cancelo losing his temper in front of young FC Barcelona fans. In particular, we see the Portuguese full-back complaining about their daily presence as they wait, phone in hand, so they can take a picture next to him. This scene, unusual to say the least, led to criticism from some media outlets, including the Spanish newspaper Diario S.
In the comments section of the Portuguese media’s Instagram account misfotipolJoao Cancelo then spoke about the real reasons for his anger : “They are not supporters, they are “guys” in their twenties who are in front of the training center every day, when I am in the park with my daughter or when I have dinner with my boyfriend. They ask for autographs or t-shirts to sell later. And that’s every day. These are people who don’t know how to respect other people’s space. For those who criticize me, we must first know the reality before commenting on it. Because the fans I will always respect“.
