THE BIGGER PICTURE: Cancelo joined the German giants from Manchester City on loan in January at the request of Nagelsmann but found it difficult to break into the starting XI under the 35-year-old manager. However, with Tuchel taking charge from next week, the full-back will hope to turn around his fortunes with the Bavarian outfit.

WHAT NEXT FOR CANCELO? The Portuguese defender opened the scoring against Liechtenstein and will hope to continue his impressive form in the next 2024 Euro qualifier against Luxembourg.
