Gunner for life, insists Fabregas
Arsenal midfielder Cesc Fabregas dismisses all speculations linking him back to Spain, says he wants to finish his career at Arsenal.
Midfielder Cesc Fabregas dismissed speculation he is eyeing a move back to his native Spain, insisting Monday he wants to see out his career with Arsenal.
The 20-year-old has starred in Arsenal's unbeaten start to the season but has been linked with an eventual return to either Barcelona, which he left as a 16-year-old for London, or Real Madrid.
"When I first came to England my idea was to go back to Spain one day," Fabregas said in The Sun.
"But the truth is that now I'm happier every day and I love London, the people and the club.
"I'm going to say the truth - every day I have more desire to stay here for a long time, for the rest of my career.
"I haven't had the fortune of playing in the Spanish league and right now I really identify with football in the Premier League because it's so passionate, fast, attacking and vibrant. It's the football that I like the most."
