Cesc Fabregas claims: I want to stay with Barcelona

    DAVID MOYES is losing his fight to lure Cesc Fabregas to Old Trafford.

    The Spain midfield star has told friends he wants to stay and fight for his place at Barcelona.

    Manchester United have had two offers rejected and are mulling over making a club-record £35million bid.

    Fabregas, 26, remains top of Moyes’ summer hitlist but a Barca insider confirmed last night: “Cesc is very flattered by United’s interest and recognises what a great opportunity they offer.

    “But it’s only two years since he left Arsenal and he doesn’t want to turn his back on Barcelona so soon.

    And new Barca manager Tata Martino, who took over after Tito Vilanova stepped down due to illness, insisted his man was going nowhere.

    He said: “Man United want Cesc? If the club rejected two offers, I will reject it a third time. Cesc will be here.”

    Fabregas reported back for pre-season training yesterday and underwent a pre-season medical.

    He has been on holiday since playing for Spain in the Confederations Cup.
