Cesc wants Arsenal to do Barcelona deal before Sunday

Cesc Fabregas does not want to travel with Arsenal on their tour of the Far East.

The Sun says he wants to sign for Barcelona BEFORE Arsenal leave for Asia on Sunday.

The Gunners fly out to Kuala Lumpur for a nine-day pre-season tour but their wantaway skipper is desperate not to go.

Arsenal boss Arsene Wenger has tried to reassure his captain his situation will be resolved soon but Fabregas is deeply worried.

Last year a move to Barca fell through after the two clubs failed to agree a fee and the player fears that history could repeat itself.

The Catalan giants have offered just over £31million with an extra £5m in various add-ons for their ex-youth star.

But Arsenal have, so far, been adamant they will only sell for £40m.
