Cesc Fabregas admits he almost turned down Arsenal because he believed his Barcelona youth team was far better.
"But then they made me the proposal and I saw that Arsenal was a great club. I came here to see the training ground and to talk to Mr Wenger. Imagine, you are playing under 16s at Barcelona and then you are talking to a person like Arsene Wenger who is so important in this world of football.
"It impressed me a lot. I had something in my mind saying, 'Go on, you have to sign because everything is going to be fine'."
