Fabregas ignoring speculation and concentrating on World Cup

Cesc Fabregas is remaining focussed and refusing to be drawn into speculation surrounding his future at Arsenal. The Gunners skipper continues to be linked with a return to Barcelona.

But, with World Cup duties with Spain dominating his thoughts at present, Fabregas is keen to put the issue to one side and focus on his international commitments.

"I am isolated from it all and I am not thinking about anything else apart from the national team," he said.

"I have come to play a World Cup, which is the best thing possible for a player, with the same excitement that I had at the World Cup in Germany when I was 19.

"I am hungry to do something important and the only thing I will do is always give everything, with a lot of desire and make sure the hunger and competitiveness are never lacking."
