Joao Cancelo’s Race Against Time: Determined to Face Atletico Madrid Despite Hamstring Concerns

In a race against time to recover from hamstring concerns, Joao Cancelo, currently on international duty, expressed his commitment to be on the field against Atletico Madrid this Sunday. The Portuguese player revealed that he had already sensed an overload in his hamstrings during international duty, prompting him to request a substitution as a precautionary measure in the match against Porto, according to reliable reports from Helena Condis.

Cancelo’s relentless schedule since joining Barcelona on loan in September has seen him play almost non-stop. Despite the physical demands, the complete wing-back has made a significant impact, contributing three goals and providing two assists in 16 appearances for the club. As fans anxiously await his fitness updates, Cancelo’s determination to be part of the crucial clash adds an extra layer of anticipation to the upcoming match against Atletico Madrid.
