Fabregas wants to rejoin Barca, says president
Barcelona president Joan Laporta says Arsenal ace Cesc Fabregas is the club's top summer target - and that the player wants to re-join his former club.
With Real Madrid splashing the cash this summer Laporta wants to add Fabregas, who he claims wants to play for the Catalan giants, to Josep Guardiola's star-studded squad.
"Cesc Fabregas has the Barcelona DNA in his body and we know that he wants to play for this club," Laporta told Cadena Cope.
"At the moment he is the leader at Arsenal and a very important player for them. But Cesc is wanted by me, by the coach Pep Guardiola and by the sport director Txiki Begiristain.
"We are concentrating all of our efforts on it, but at the same time we have a lot of respect for Arsenal.
"We have positive relations with Arsenal so it will not be an easy topic to talk to them about."
