Inter have no intention of giving up on Joao Cancelo, after the confirmation of Spalletti’s great trust regarding the Portuguese fullback, Inter owners Suning have also confirmed confidence in the young versatile player through Ausilio and Sabatini, who were responsible for bringing Cancelo to Milan.

This comes after rumours emerged that Valencia want to terminate Cancelo’s loan spell in Italy. Reports in Italy suggest that on Saturday, in Reggio Emilia against Sassuolo, Cancelo could be starting the match which would be his debut in the league from the first minute after only a few substitute appearances until now.

The Gazzetta dello Sport explains: “The player is ready to get back into contention and has postponed any market rumours until January. Saturday, Sassuolo, then the Italian Cup derby against Milan (quarter-final), then the delicate home match with Lazio and the trip to Florence: four really important matches in which Cancelo plans to increase his play time, and the same time find definitive answers on the opportunity to continue in this Italian adventure.”
