Fabregas deal ‘agreed in principle’

August 14, 2011 by Paul Chan

The BBC reports that a deal to transfer Cesc Fabregas to Barcelona has been agreed in principle and that a medical will be performed on Monday.

Arsenal will receive up to £35m for their captain and talismanic midfielder from Barcelona.

With Samir Nasri’s future still to be decided and Arsenal’s lack of cutting edge once again on display in their dull yet controversial draw at St James’ Park against Newcastle yesterday the pressure will surely be on for Arsene Wenger to spend the money on the Arsenal squad to ensure that they hold off what is sure to be a strong challenge on the top-4 from the likes of Liverpool and Spurs.

The Gunners remain a talented squad, however, and with some wise squad strengthening could still maintain a title challenge this season.
