Arsenal's Fabregas to play against Benfica

Arsenal captain Cesc Fabregas will put all the transfer fuss behind him when he plays his first pre-season match tomorrow.

The Spanish midfielder will take part in the clash with Portuguese side Benfica in the Eusebio Cup after training with the squad this morning and flying out later in the day.

Fabregas is still linked with a return to Barcelona but will be in an Arsenal shirt tomorrow as the North London club continues to prepare for its Premier League opener away to Newcastle United on August 13.
