Arsenal & Barcelona Finally Enter Negotiations Over Fabregas Sale

Barcelona boss Pep Guardiola has confirmed Arsenal are prepared to negotiate over the sale of club captain Cesc Fabregas.

Barcelona boss Pep Guardiola has confirmed Arsenal are prepared to negotiate over the sale of club captain Cesc Fabregas.

The Spanish tactician believes the Gunners are more receptive to an approach this summer and are currently in talks with Barca over a move. Guardiola was quoted as saying on the Barcelona website:

“We were interested last year, but Arsenal did not put him on the market. This year they’ve agreed to negotiate and we will try to reach an agreement.”

Guardiola added: “You all know about Barca’s interest in Cesc. There is money set aside for this player and until the last day we will try to bring in Cesc because he will make the squad better. I hope that something can be sorted. Until August 31 there is time, but at times things don’t always work out.”

The Catalan chief also spoke on Fabregas’s failure to join the team on their tour of Asia, with the North London side claiming the Spaniard was injured.

“I think that Cesc has to do what Arsenal ask. For me I wouldn’t like one of my players to say ‘now I’m not training because I want to go’.”
