Cancelo has been a key part of the defending champions' march to the top of the Premier League table, appearing in all but one of City's games in the competition this season.
He was voted into the Professional Footballers' Association Premier League team of the season in 2020-21, having arrived at City in a £60m deal from Juventus in August 2019.
