- Fabregas vows to stay put
Arsenal midfielder Cesc Fabregas says he knows nothing of a mooted summer return to Spain to join Real Madrid and is fully focused on his Gunners career.
The 19-year-old former Barcelona youngster is rumoured to be one of the names on the wish-list of new Real president Ramon Calderon, but Fabregas says he knows nothing of any potential bid.
He told Mundo Deportivo: "I'm not thinking of anything other than playing for Arsenal next season.
"I'm an Arsenal player 100 per cent. No-one has told me anything to the contrary.
"Sooner or later I would like to play in the Spanish league, as I left when I was 16 and I haven't had the chance, but at the moment I am really happy in England."
Fabregas joined Arsenal in the summer of 2003 and has gone on to make nearly 100 first-team appearances for Arsene Wenger's side, helping the Gunners reach the Champions League final last season.
