Posted August 12, 200915 yr I know its from Goal.com, but its worth a read (and a chuckle). Barca Have A Week To Clinch Deal. Bored of London, Fab? Maybe its a huge conspiracy by Man City to buy their way (literally) into 4th place!!
August 12, 200915 yr If that is true, Barca would be fools not to do this deal. Fabregas could inherit the mantle of an aging Xavi, and Barca would be getting a world class player aged just 22. Obviously they dont need him, but he would help keep them on top for years to come. I dont see it happening myself, but it would certainly kill many a Madridista who hope to sign him in a few years time. Considering how much of Barca's teams are promoted from the academy, they can afford to make the odd big splash every few years, such as this. And if Arsenal were to sell Fabregas, that would be a PR disaster of epic proportions Edited August 12, 200915 yr by TheWestwayWonder
