Arsene Wenger dismisses Fabregas rumours
Arsenal manager Arsene Wenger has dismissed reports The Arsenal Captain Cesc Fabregas has agreed a move to Barcelona, and he hinted at a move for Lille starlet Eden Hazard.

Barcelona made their interest in The Arsenal Captain Cesc Fabregas clear last summer, but Arsene Wenger was adamant his captain would not leave the club and two bids were rejected.

Barcelona are believed to retain an interest in the player and reports in Spain have suggested that a deal is now in place for a move at the end of the season, but Wenger says those rumours have no credibility.

"I have a good sense of humour, but I don't understand this one," he said. "I cannot see how people can say things like that without us knowing it.

"We have the contract of the player and we would inform you if we would sell the player. We sell nobody."

Wenger has, though, revealed that he is considering a bid for Belgium international Hazard, who has spoken of his "dream" of moving to the Emirates.

"Let us try to make his dream come true," Wenger said. "We are following him.

"Personally I think he has real talent and the level needed to play at Arsenal, but in the offensive department we have many players. At the end of the season we'll have a look at the situation."
