David Moyes and Manchester United have registered their offical intrest in former Arsenal captain Cesc Fabregas with an offical £25m bid. Having recently missed out on Thiago, another Barcelona player they believe to of been scouting they have stepped up the pace for their next target.
Fabregas has said more than once that he is happy at the Nou Camp and that he feels his future lies with Barcelona even though the fans have struggled to take admiration in his work. Arsenal are believed to have first refusal on their former captain and could launch a bid themselves. Arsenal have been linked with a move for Fabregas on more than one occasionthis season and would destroy Manchester United’s hopes of signing him if they wish to invoke a bidding war.
Fabregas have been with Barcelona for two seasons now and has had a tough time. Even though last season, he created 50 goal scoring opportunities when Kagawa, Cleverley and Nani only created 49 between them. Manchester United are in desperate need of reinforcements in midfield ever since the departure of Paul Scholes who hung up the boots at the end of last season.
BBC and Sky Sports news can confirm that a bid has been made. BBC believe the bid is around the £25m mark where as Sky believe they have stretched to the £35m mark.
A fun fact: Fabregas and Robin Van Persie have the same agent. Make of that what you wish.ngage their interest elsewhere.
