Barcelona have assured Arsenal captain Cesc Fabregas they're willing to wait until 2010 to sign him. Concerned over Florentino Perez's plans for Real Madrid, Sport says Barca have made fresh contact with Cesc's representatives to assure him they want to bring him back to the Nou Camp.

Barca are desperate for Cesc not to pull on the white shirt of Real Madrid and have made the Spain midfielder aware they're prepared to wait 12 months to sign him if he wants to stay in London next season.
