That makes sense. And since Pep prefers to have submissive yes-man type of players, he had to phase him out for the good of everything else. It turned out to be a good decision tho.As far as I know Juve let him go for budget reasons. They wanted to get De Ligt back then. Cancelo also wanted to leave and asked his agent to find him a new club.
The attitude stuff is an exaggerated narrative. He majorly fell out with Pep as we all know and in general has a moany-whiny typical Portuguese personality like Bruno for example. That's it really.
In the past Cancelo has been criticised for being a bit naive tactically at times.
Asked my Juve supporting friend: he said he's very gifted but has not trained according to the coach's demand two or three times and has moaned about playing time in the past.
