Arsenal skipper Cesc must wait for Barcelona to sell before offer arrives

Arsenal captain Cesc Fabregas faces a waiting game over hopes of returning to Barcelona.

The Sun says Barca are £450m in debt and most of boss Pep Guardiola's £40m summer warchest will be spent on nabbing Chilean winger Alexis Sanchez from Udinese.

So Fabregas will have to wait for Barca to sell players before they have enough cash to buy him.

Barca president Sandro Rosell said: "Cesc is doing everything he can to come. Pep Guardiola knows the value of players and for Cesc it is less than £35.5m.

"Barcelona will offer less and if they don't accept he won't come."
