Arsenal To Demand €72 Million For Cesc Fabregas Transfer To Barcelona - Report
Posted Thursday, June 10, 2010 by Goal.com
As reported by Marca, Premier League side Arsenal have requested that Barcelona pay at least €72 million should the Catalan giants wish to acquire former Barca youth product and current Gunners captain Cesc Fabregas.
The price tag comes on the heels of a €35m formal offer by the Blaugrana last week that was rejected by the London side. Instead, the Gunners have more than doubled the asking price, making Barca president Joan Laporta's hope of signing the young midfielder before the Catalan club's elections on June 13 a difficult task to accomplish.
Arsenal added in a public statement that the club had "no intention" of selling their star player and captain, but would study an offer twice Barca's initial bid for the youngster.
Fabregas' asking price, huge as it already is, could potentially climb even higher if the player has a strong World Cup tournament this summer in South Africa...
