Barcelona midfielder Andres Iniesta claims transfer target Cesc Fabregas will play one more season with Arsenal FC before heading back to Spain.
Fabregas has been involved in a protracted tug-of-war between the two clubs during the off-season, with the Gunners refusing to sanction the sale of their captain back to his former club.
The Spain midfielder reportedly told manger Arsene Wenger of his desire to return to the Camp Nou after seven seasons in north London but an initial bid in the region of £25million was still turned down.
Fabregas refused to discuss his club future during the World Cup and has remained tight-lipped following Spain's success in South Africa.
However, Iniesta claims that the midfielder will stay at the Emirates Stadium for one more season before finally returning to Barcelona next summer.
"Cesc wants to be with us, but he told me how close the Arsenal fans are to his heart, He is a special player and I hope he wins the title at Arsenal this season. For them to win Cesc will have to stay fit and injury-free but he deserves to finish with a title. For all the work he has put in at Arsenal it would be a shame if it was all fruitless.I have seen time after time Lionel Messi win games for Barcelona when the rest of the team have not been on form and Cesc can do that for Arsenal this season ," said him in the News of the World.
we are still waiting for the continuation of transfer rumors of the midfielder. :)
