Barcelona manager Frank Rijkaard believes Arsenal's Cesc
Fabregas has no weaknesses in his game.
The Spaniard has netted an impressive 11 goals already this season,
and is considered the heartbeat of The Gunner's side.
Fabregas began his career as a Barcelona trainee, before Arsene
Wenger brought him to North London in 2003.
Barcelona have regularly been linked with a move to secure the
20-year-old's return to Spain, however Wenger has consistently
dismissed any speculation.
No
defects
Speaking to Sport, Rijkaard has done little to dampen rumours of an
eventual approach, by drooling over Fabregas' talent.
"It's one player that stands out most in the football world because
of his enormous talent. At his age what he is doing at Arsenal is
something impressive," he said.
"It should be bared in mind that it has become the real leader
Arsenal.
"I do not go searching for any defects in people, but the truth is
you do not encounter any [in Fabregas]."
Defiant
Furthermore, Wenger has responded to reports after Fabregas flew
out to Spain to watch Barcelona's midweek clash with Rangers.
The French tactician has quelled any potential rumours, insisting
that the wonderkid was simply taking some time out.
"This is no story," he said. "Fabregas is under contract with us.
If Barcelona want to buy any player under contract then I'll give
them my phone number. But I think they have it because they just
bought Thierry Henry."
