Transfer: Barcelona president, Laporta welcomes Cancelo, Felix

Barcelona president Joan Laporta has extended a warm welcome to their two recent Portuguese signings.

Joao Cancelo, a defender from Manchester City, and Joao Felix, a striker from Atletico Madrid, have both joined the club on loan this past Friday.

“We have a fantastic team of professionals who work very well and the players have representatives who have been great,” said Laporta.

“The aim is for people to have a good time, for joy to return.

“The challenges are even bigger and that’s why we had to bring in players of this talent.”
