Chelsea owner Abramovich ready to spend big again for Arsenal ace Cesc

Chelsea owner Roman Abramovich plans to rock Arsenal with a mega offer for Cesc Fabregas. The Sun says Chelsea's billionaire owner will try to hijack any Barcelona bid to land the Arsenal skipper.

Capturing Fabregas would be an even more astonishing Blues coup than the recent £50m British record signing of Fernando Torres from Liverpool.

Chelsea see the Spaniard as the ideal partner for Frank Lampard in the side's engine room.

Gunners boss Arsene Wenger slapped on a £60m price-tag to stave off Barca and, in the end, he convinced his captain to stay.

But the midfielder's future will again be up-in-the-air come June.
