da cassino： Barcelona target Cesc Fabregas insists he is happy at Arsenal, but also confirmed his frustration with the club’s six-year trophy drought.Fabregas, 24, has been consistently linked with a return to boyhood club Barcelona, who reportedly had a 35 million-euro bid rejected by Arsenal in June 2010.
A World Cup and European Championship winner with Spain, Fabregas has just one FA Cup success to show for his eight years in north London and is understandably disappointed with the team’s continuing silverware drought.
“A player who is not frustrated at not winning titles is either lying to himself or lacks ambition,” Fabregas said.
“There is a good team and a good manager and one of the most faithful fan bases in Europe. With those I believe we can make progress and one day win an important trophy.”
“I am an Arsenal player. I have been very happy for eight years and I am very happy. I am not thinking about football right now, just about my holidays.”
Fabregas looked set to depart the Emirates before the beginning of the 2010/11 season after publicly announcing his desire to re-join Barca.
But Arsenal resisted the Catalan giants’ advances and manager Arsene Wenger was able to convince his captain to reaffirm his commitment to the cause.
While Fabregas may again resolve to depart the Emirates Stadium, last year’s experience has taught him the reality that the matter is likely to be taken out of his hands.
“There have been no decisions,” Fabregas said.
“The truth is that it doesn’t always depend on the player and at the moment I don’t know anything.”
“He (Wenger) is the boss, the one who makes the decisions. You should ask him. I was injured at the end of the season and I haven’t seen him for about six weeks.”
“I am very happy where I am. Anything else would be speculation that is untrue. You can never say never in this life as so many things happen that you can never predict.”
