Man United chief executive Ed Woodward is set to meet representatives of La Liga side Barcelona on Monday to discuss a deal for fabregas and will hope that an offer of £40m will be accepted


Just what I've heard I don't see it happening just thought I'd share the info

Great move if true, he is certainly more accessible this year, a lot of players are going to leave Barca and Fabregas will likely be one of them. I would love him to be here.

Couldn't agree more fresh. As I said do believe this is just a rumour but would be exactly what we need, hopefully today is the day we name a manager and they shed some light on transfer deals

Could it not be the 34 year old xavi .
He would be a great mentor for cleverly

Is Fabregas the right kind of midfielder though?
I know he's brilliant, but from what I've seen he hasn't played as a central midfielder in years, but plays a more attacking role, where we already have Mata et al.

If he can play as part of a central pair though he'd be great.

40 mil seems a lot for a player barca don't even want just saying

I'd love this to happen, and I understand that he hasn't developed into a key Barce player like he would have wanted, but I can't help but think that the lad who bleeds Barce wouldn't want to leave when they are unable to replace him, and the person who he was bought to replace is retiring/moving on. I understand that he has played in a more attacking role but is this not his chance to cement his role at the club that he loves?

Happy as Larry if he comes in, but I can't help but think it's unlikely but I'm probably attributing more loyalty to the modern day footballer than they deserve.

I'm aware that I'm being lazy and not checking myself, but does anyone know how the Barce transfer ban works? Is it merely a financial thing? I.e Could they swap players on a loophole, I can't help but think that Rooney might end up going this summer.
