There has been recent doubts about both loanees staying. But Laporta says they're eager to sign permanently Cancelo from Manchester City and Felix from Atletico Madrid.

Laporta told EFE: "The players' agent (Jorge Mendes), who is the same, and the two clubs (City and Atltico de Madrid), with whom we have a good relationship and know each other a lot, have already guided us on where the players should go.

"It so that the operations are concluded, so that they join Bara. We are interested in them not being on loan, but rather belonging to the squad. Let's see how it evolves. It will be addressed in due course.

"I believe that both the Cancelo operation and that of Flix are operations that all parties will be satisfied with."
