After Barcelona made a formal offer for Arsenal captain Cesc Fabregas, Arsenal.com confirmed tha the club has rejected a bid from Barca for Cesc Fabregas..
“Arsenal captain Cesc Fabregas is under contract with the Club until the summer of 2015. He is a highly valued member of the team and part of our future plans.
“We have followed recent speculation linking Cesc with a move away from the Club but as there has never been any official approach for him, only two informal exchanges, in which we made it abundantly clear that we have no interest in transferring Cesc, we have refrained from publicly passing comment. However, yesterday evening we received an offer from Barcelona for Cesc and in response, we immediately and resolutely told them once again that we have no intention of selling our captain.
“To be clear, we will not make any kind of counterproposal or enter into any discussion. Barcelona have publicly stated that they will respect our position and we expect that they will keep their word.”

Good news but I never really expected him to go. I just hope wenger signs some decent players to make him want to stay
Haha. Love it. The arrogance of Arsenal’s statement is refreshing
finally!!!!!! now the *rse h*les can go shopping somewhere else!!!
For “arrogance” read “class” !!!
That is the news ive been wanting to hear.. Arsenal finally having the balls to relase a statment about cesc’s future…
about time they showed some backbone now sighn some class players
is it wise to keep a player that wants to play for barca
I mean I know Fab will give everything for Arsenal next season but he still wanted to move and how will the other players feel about him knowing that fab wanted to leave them
Oh well looks like he be at Arsenal next season. Bye bye Barca.
They want to sell 35 Million for Ibrama, and buy 29 million for Cesc does seem to be really fair somehow.
I am reminded of the Manic Street Preachers “If You Tolerate This Your Children Will Be Next”. For once Arsenal remember your based in the Holloway road and have fight and guts rather than in Hamsptead.
this rejection is absolutely class. i have now got so much respect for arsenal. united ponied up and played ball with ronaldo, ac milan did the same for kaka, and inter did the same for ibra. ARSENAL are a world player and we WONT get bullied by some nancy spanish gay boys. BACK OFF!
