Arsenal<\/a> chairman Peter Hill-Wood has confirmed that Barcelona<\/a> have made contact with the Gunners concerning a potential move for their skipper Cesc Fabregas<\/a>.<\/p>\n

The 24-year-old midfielder has been heavily linked with a move back to the Catalan club, having previously plied his trade for them before making a move to England.<\/p>\n

For his part, the Spain international has maintained that it is his dream to play for the European champions at some point in his career.<\/p>\n

Now Hill-Wood has confirmed that Barca have been in touch concerning a move for the World Cup winner, but insists that a formal offer has not yet been made.<\/p>\n

“Yes, they have spoken to us about Cesc,” he said, according to The Mirror<\/em>.<\/p>\n

“They have been in touch. But so far they have not made a bid and we do not want to let him go.<\/p>\n

“But he comes from Barcelona so it is understandable if he wanted to go back. However, they have not made an offer so far.”<\/p>\n
