Joao Cancelo records brilliant assist for Bayern Munich on his Bundesliga debut

Joao Cancelo delivered a brilliant cross for Kingsley Coman who scored a stunning goal during Wolfsbury vs. Bayern Munich on Sunday

Cancelo recorded a delightful assist in his new side's DFP-Pokal match against Mainz on Wednesday in his debut following his move from Manchester City.

And he's bagged his second assist in as many games after setting up the French forward on his Bundesliga debut.

From the right wing, the Portuguese international picked out Coman with a delicious ping into the box.

Coman met the ball with an outrageous volley to find the back of the net to make it 2-0.

Cancelo, who fell out with Pep Guardiola at Man City, is available to Bayern for £61.5 million as part of the loan agreement.

And the club's sporting director Hasan Salihamidzic is planning to make the switch permanent.

"After the transfer was done, we actually thought again about how long we've been dealing with Joao. We came up with more than four years. Either our position was filled or we didn't have the money for it," he explained.

"We're playing with open cards. This sum is difficult for us to imagine in the next few years. If all sides really want a common solution, you can manage that in the end. He knows that he has been one of our dream players for years."

The 28-year-old will spend the rest of the season at Bayern, having been with the Blues since 2019.

Despite Salihamidzic's comments, Guardiola admits he does not know what will happen with the player next season.

"Next season I don't know what happens. An incredible figure in the last 2 leagues we won," he said.

"After the World Cup, we make a pre-season and decided to play, in some patterns different. I like what I watch. I give more time to other players. His personality, mine, he loves to play. He trains the best, the situation he doesn't play much.

"In the last years one of the players with more minutes. He needs to play to be happy, we decide to let him go to Munich."
