Fabregas Now Odds-on To Leave Arsenal

Bookmakers William Hill have cut the price for Cesc Fabregas to leave Arsenal this summer from 11-10 to 8-11 following intense speculation in the Spanish press that he will re-join Barcelona this summer.
Catalan newspaper El Mundo Deportivo claim Fabregas has told family and friends that he has agreed a four-year deal with the Blaugrana.
Leading Spanish newspaper, Marca have also added fuel to the story. They quote the Arsenal skipper as saying “I want to make a decision about my future before the start of the World Cup. It’s impossible to perform at a tournament like the World Cup if you’re not fully focused on the sporting aspects of the game. I don’t want to be distracted by transfer talk.”
William Hill spokesman Graham Sharpe said “The Spanish media seem to believe that it is a done deal and the money seems to suggest that he’ll be playing at the Camp Nou next season.”
