Barca鈥檚 Fabregas joins Chelsea
Print Edition
SPANISH midfielder Cesc Fabregas said yesterday he has signed for English Premier League club Chelsea after spending three seasons at Barcelona.
“I considered all the other offers very carefully and I firmly believe that Chelsea is the best choice,” the 27-year-old former Arsenal player said in a statement.
Fabregas is believed to have signed a five-year contract for a fee in the region of 30 million pounds (US$50.5 million).
With Barcelona having failed to win any silverware last season and the appointment of Luis Enrique as the new head coach, Fabregas was allowed to leave Spain and he said Chelsea was his preferred option.
“They match my footballing ambitions with their hunger and desire to win trophies,” he said.
Fabregas joined Arsenal from Barcelona’s youth set-up in 2003 and developed into a star in England after securing a first-team place and he eventually became captain. But the only trophy he won in England was the 2005 FA Cup.
