Barca: “There Is No Way Arsenal Will Sell Cesc For What We Offered”

A Barcelona source has admitted they knew Arsenal would reject their offers for Cesc Fabregas and say they have been told that they have two weeks to sign the Spaniard.

The Arsenal captain has been linked with a move to the Nou Camp for the past two years and Arsenal have finally accepted Cesc’s plea to return home. Barca have had offers of £27m and £30m rejected by the Gunners already.

According to the Sun, Arsenal do not want prolong the sale of their midfielder and have issued a two week deadline to Barca to get the deal done. A top Barca source admitted:

“Arsenal have let it be known that unless a deal for Cesc is sorted by the end of the month then he will stay in London.

“They said although they never wanted to sell their captain they were prepared to reluctantly accept Cesc’s request to come home.

“They’ve insisted they have been very fair to Cesc and Barcelona and this situation is not healthy for them and has to end.

“They are not prepared to wait much longer and after staying silent throughout the summer, they will issue a public statement to draw a line under this matter at the start of next month.

“We understand there is no way they will sell Cesc for what we offered but the decision rests with our president Sandro Rosell.”
