Barcelona is keen to make those players permanent transfers, but they have no money.
Sometimes i don't know where Barcelona is going with their transfer business, i don't know if they were actually keen on keeping both Cancelo and Felix and just didn't have the money to do so, or if they only planned to keep them in Barcelona on loan for last season.
That being said, the two players have returned to their respective clubs, in which they have fallen out with both their managers and the club in general, so it is going to be a difficult one for them. City and Atletico Madrid would want to get rid of both Cancelo and Felix, but it might prove to be difficult because of the cost of transfer and wages, and i'd not be surprised if they both go out on loan again.
Barcelona is a team that doesn’t want to progress in the next five years because they always complain about money, my thoughts are that Barcelona is going to sign Felix and Cancelo but after hearing that they will no longer be in the squad for the next season I was shocked because those guys help Barcelona throughout last season, although Barcelona didn’t win any trophy those players are very good and they will like to play for Barcelona in the future, those players wanted Barcelona more than the way Barcelona need them, the players also believe that if they go back to their clubs they won’t have chance to play because they don’t have good relationships with the coach.
Barcelona can afford Cancelo with a small amount and I believe Manchester City will accept because the player is willing to stay in Barcelona, the only player that will cost them money is Felix and I believe Barcelona will get Felix with 30m because Felix's market value is not that high like before, although we know Atletico Madrid will demand a big amount but if Barcelona knows how to sign a player like Real Madrid they will get Felix for 30m, Barcelona haven’t signed any players and the league is about to start next month, we will see what will happen after the league starts maybe they are planning to use some young players again.
