Madrid, Aug. 17 -- Portuguese international defender Joao Cancelo is on the verge of returning to FC Barcelona on a permanent deal, the player confirmed on Monday.
The 32-year-old spent a successful six-month spell on loan at Barcelona from Al-Hilal last season, but had to return to the Saudi Arabian club at the end of Barcelona's title-winning campaign.
He and Al-Hilal reached an agreement to end their relationship over the weekend and Cancelo flew into Barcelona on Monday.
