According to The Mirror, Barcelona are confident that this is the week they finally get their. Strange that they want him with that injury heh?
Well yawn, yawn I guess, this after all has been how every week has started this summer and last. And yet, and yet, it all feels a bit more real this time.
What’s a decent price for Cesc and will Arsenal get it? In an open, competitive race, the price would have to be £50, £60million. Think Ronaldo and Kaka. Trouble is, Fabregas is either playing for Arsenal or Barcelona next season. No-one else and Barcelona know it. Which probably means £30 to £40million. Is that enough to say yes?
Wenger faces a grim choice, keep Fabregas, body but not soul; or take the money and remodel?
The only other stories out there today seem to be Arsenal’s supposed interest in Estaban Granero and more speculation about Downing.
The Granero story is only on Caught Offside. The Downing story? Surely he’s not worth £17million, even as an overpriced Brit?
