Spain international Cesc Fabregas admits he is flattered by
the interest of Real Madrid but insists he is happy at Arsenal.
According to reports in the Spanish media, Fabregas' agent Joseba
Diaz met with Real president Ramon Calderon after the club's recent
Champions League clash with Bayern Munich to discuss the
possibility of the midfielder moving to the Bernabeu in the
summer.
Calderon is reportedly willing to offer a players-plus-cash deal to
the Gunners, with Fabregas valued in excess of £25million. However,
Fabregas, who joined Arsenal in 2003, has now moved to distance
himself from the transfer speculation.
"It is always nice to hear good things said about me," he told
Marca Radio. "However, I am happy here [at Arsenal] and I have
everyone's trust. "This is very important for me - to be at a big
club and have the complete confidence of the coach (Arsene
Wenger)."
The 19-year-old added that he had spoken to his agent, who denied
holding talks with Real. Fabregas added: "If he said that at no
time he spoke to Real Madrid, it means that he hasn't. I have
complete confidence in him."
