FABREGAS WANTS ARSENAL RETURN

From Frank Worrall's Weekly Sport column, Sept 5, 2012 IT'S one of those weeks when you hear some crazy inside tips about star players and their futures. The Ronaldo to United with Rooney to Madrid story was staggering enough but there's one brewing down in London that could prove equally as mind-blowing. My sources at Arsenal tell me that Cesc Fabregas is unhappy at Barcelona and that he has told pals at Arsenal that he would love to return to the Emirates. His story is the one of the big fish in the smaller pond who is lost and lonesome when he becomes the small fish in the bigger pond. His dream move back to his hometown club has not worked out as he would have hoped - he is not a guaranteed starter and his form has suffered. The John Snag he faces is obvious: Arsenal could not afford to buy him back, or pay his wages. So would they be willing to offer Barca Jack Wilshere in a straight swop deal? Or will he end up returning to England and playing for Man City or Chelsea? I would not be at all surprised to see Cesc back here by this time next year. He is a class act. FRANK WORRALL
