Theo Walcott convinced Cesc Fabregas will snub Barcelona and stay at Arsenal
Top Guns: Walcott is confident Fabregas will stay Theo Walcott is confident Cesc Fabregas will resist the advances of Barcelona and stay at Arsenal this season. Fabregas is set to make his first appearance in front of the Arsenal fans since he signalled his desire to leave the club earlier this summer. The Arsenal captain will star alongside the rest of Arsene Wenger's squad during a photo-shoot and training session for club members at the Emirates Stadium on Thursday. Wenger has called on his captain to end speculation linking him with a move back to his boyhood club by committing his future to the Gunners - a move the World Cup winner has so far been reluctant to do. Nevertheless Walcott is convinced Fabregas will don the red of Arsenal this season and the winger says he can't wait to play alongside him. 'Cesc's a big player for Arsenal so I'm looking forward to playing with him next season, the 21-year-old told the Sun. Staying put? Barcelona want to sign Fabregas 'He's one of those players who spots a ball no one else would. I've been texting him. 'I sent my congratulations for the World Cup and said what a great pass he made for the winner. 'After that he just needed a good mental break from it all. 'I'm looking forward to seeing him back. He's a fantastic player for us and our captain. 'After Spain's victory, it's a nice bonus to have a World Cup winner by your side.'
