Arsenal's Cesc Fabregas on verge of Barcelona move
By Dan Roan
BBC sports news correspondent
Arsenal captain Cesc Fabregas is close to signing for European
champions Barcelona for a fee believed to be about 35m.
The transfer, one of the most protracted in Premier League history,
is yet to be completed but Arsenal expect it to be done by the weekend.
According to a senior source at the club, all the funds generated
by the sale will be reinvested in new players.
The Gunners have been linked with Scott Dann, Phil Jagielka and
Gary Cahill.
Gunners boss Arsene Wenger looks intent on strengthening his defence
and reports have suggested centre-backs Dann of Birmingham, Everton's
Jagielka and Cahill of Bolton could be targets.
Fabregas, 24, would be unable to feature for Barcelona in the Champions
League if he plays a part in Arsenal's match with Udinese on Tuesday,
motivating both clubs to complete a deal before that game.
The BBC understands a fee of 30m, plus over 5m of additional
performance-related payments, is close to being reached for Fabregas.
It is believed that, if he is sold, the Spaniard will be due 4m in
compensation - 1m for each year of his contract he did not complete -
but may be prepared to forego that payment in order to facilitate a deal.
Negotiations have been conducted by Barcelona's Vice-President
Josep Maria Bartomeu and is believed to be a final take-it-or-leave-it
offer, leaving Arsenal having to sell one of the major assets or
keep a player who has his heart set on a move.
The transfer fee is significantly less than the 40m that Arsenal had
been holding out for and suggests that the Gunners felt they had no
choice but to sell a player who wanted to leave.
Fabregas, who has 58 caps for Spain, joined Arsenal from the Catalan
giants in 2003 and, since making his name in north London, has been
persistently linked with a return to his boyhood club.
Wenger will now turn his attention to keeping Samir Nasri at the club,
who has refused to sign a new deal at the Emirates amid speculation of
interest from Manchester City.
If the Fabregas deal goes through as expected, he will become Barcelona's
second major signing of the summer following their 23m purchase of
Chilean forward Alexis Sanchez.

Negotiations are ongoing, with Arsenal yet to accept any deal formally.
Yet Barca have received encouragement that a package worth an initial
€29m (25.4m) – with a further payment of around €6m (5.3m) linked
to future appearances and honours still under discussion – will now
prove sufficient to sign the player. A similarly structured deal had,
to all intents and purposes, been on the table for some time, though
key to Arsenal's recent shift in stance appears to have been Fabregas's
further willingness to re-direct around €5m (4.4m) from his prospective
earnings at the Catalan club directly to his former side.
That figure would equate to a proportion of his wages over the course of
a fiveyear contract and would help inflate the overall size of the deal,
allowing Arsenal scope to compromise from their initial demands of nearer
40m. Fabregas, who has never formally asked for a transfer but had
nevertheless made clear his desire to return to his boyhood club, has
cut an isolated figure at Arsenal in pre-season.

Although it has been suggested that Fabregas will take a pay cut in
his 120,000-a-week wages, the reality is that the player will simply
accept a lower offer from Barcelona than the improvement on his existing
deal that he could have earned by signing a new contract at Arsenal.

警告: 請勿在本文下方推一些 "XX隊快瓦解" "連資格賽都沒得打" "XX被解雇"
這種沒有任何任何營養的情緒性文字. 個人對於其他球隊, 球員和教練的不爽
是你家的事. 在公開版面保持對於他人的基本尊重很困難嘛?
敢寫這種文字, 就得有自己的球隊有一天走下坡時被人酸到爆的覺悟.
這一點我想這個版目前絕大多數人都沒有經歷過.
之後還有類似推文將逕行刪除.
