Keown tells Man Utd target Cesc to stay with Barcelona

Former Arsenal defender Martin Keown feels Cesc Fabregas should stay with Barcelona.

Keown wrote in the Daily Mail: "Fabregas went there to take over from Xavi and Andres Iniesta and that can still happen. He's had injuries but he's still an outstanding talent. I saw that during the Confederations Cup this summer.

"Yes, a move to Manchester United or back to Arsenal might feel tempting but I think he should stay in Barcelona. It was his dream for such a long time. It's character building to carry the fight through. He'd always feel a tinge of regret if he left, even though he's won the league and cup already."
