Joao Cancelo missed the match against Atlético de Madrid due to medical advice, as a precaution. A relative of the player has a heart problem and the club’s medical services want to rule out that it is hereditary. @FCBRAC1

1. If it sounds like bullshit, it is. I guess that is to be expected during international break.

2. I mean he’s playing on the field for like 100 years. They could have ruled the damn thing out after the game.

3. And what if it turns out to be hereditary? He’ll have to retire?

4. Thuram flashback. Hope nothing comes out of it, preferably with good news after International Break.

5. i hope he is ok, and we dont have a kun aguero case again.

6. Atleast he got rested, now he’ll play both games for Portugal

7. Man if I had a nickel for Everytime we had a former City player experience heart problems shortly after signing with us I’d have 2 nickels.

8. I think this could be a news which hides a lot of information yet is true on surface.

   (A close)Relative could have suffered some medical issue related to heart, which in turn would have been led to this discovery and then this conclusion.

   Also, what’s up Man City players coming to Barca and having heart issues.

9. MD : Cancelo does not suffer from heart problems and was given the green light to play with Portugal ✅
