Sitting it out: Cesc Fabregas
11 April 2012
Arsenal captain Cesc Fabregas will take no part in the Emirates Cup this weekend, manager Arsene Wenger confirmed this afternoon.
Barcelona are looking to bring the World Cup winner back to the Nou Camp, but Arsenal remain determined to hold out for a £40million fee.
Fabregas has not featured in any of Arsenal's pre-season games, with the club saying he needs to work on his match fitness following a troublesome hamstring.
Speaking at this afternoon's press conference ahead of the Emirates Cup, Wenger said: "He is not settled, with his injury and his situation. That has to be sorted out soon."
