Barcelona and Al-Hilal are reportedly in negotiations over a permanent transfer for Joao Cancelo in the summer transfer window.

Cancelo has impressed back at Barcelona since re-joining in the winter window and both parties would like him to continue.

The Portugal international still has a year left to run on his contract and Al-Hilal had initially been hoping for a fee in the region of €10-15 million.
