EPL News: Barcelona player Gerard Pique reignites the Cesc Fabregas saga saying he will return to Barca
The 23 year old Spanish centre back, Gerard Pique has said that Cecs Fabregas’ move to Barcelona is eminent. One of the stars that helped Spain win the FIFA 2010 World Cup in South Africa reckoned that Fabregas was born and raised in Spain with Barcelona as his club and that was a major reason why Fabregas would return to the club.
Since the beginning of summer, Fabregas has expressed his desire to make a move back to his old club Barcelona. The world class Spanish midfielder has said that the only reason he made a move out of the Catalans was because he wasn’t getting a chance to play at Barcelona.
The reason for that wasn’t that Fabregas was a bad player but the Barcelona team had too many star players in the squad and that therefore meant Fabregas had to be benched. Back then, players like Xavi and Iniesta were on the rise and along with some more star players in the midfield, the 16 year old boy had barely enough time to show his skills, ultimately he made a move to Arsenal.
Throughout the summer, different Barca players have been endorsing their former team mate in hope that their comments might instigate a new step towards signing the prodigal player. The latest comments are from Gerard Pique who has said that the Arsenal captain, Fabregas “will one day sign for Barcelona.”
The 23 year old Fabregas had earlier told the Gunners manger Arsene Wenger that he no longer desired to play for Arsenal. Frechman Wenger had a severe reaction to it and told him that he couldn’t let the midfielder leave the club right now as the club needed his presence desperately. The tension between the manager and the player rose after their confrontation but it has been resolved that Fabregas would play another season for Arsenal.
While talking to media, Pique commented, “Cesc will one day sign for Barca.” He also praised the player saying that he had always admired his game play and couldn’t wait for him to return to Camp Nou, where all other team mates were anxiously waiting for him.
