Arsenal boss Arsene Wenger says there's been no contact from Barcelona for Cesc Fabregas.
The European champions have repeatedly eyed their ex-Academy star, 24, but it seems they may no longer have the cash to make a massive signing.
Wenger said: "There was an interest from Barcelona last year which I won't hide.
"This year there hasn't been an interest. My No 1 wish is to keep Fabregas - for me he is the best midfielder in the world and we naturally built the team around him."
