– “He has a year left in Paris, but I would love it. It’s a dream that the club and all the fans have, but I’m speaking as a fan.”
– The Spanish midfielder isn’t the only one who wants to see Messi at Barcelona, as President Joan Laporta shares those feelings.
– “I feel like I have, as the president, a moral debt to him in order to give him the best moment of his career, or give him a better moment, for the end of his career,” Laporta told The New York Times.
– Fabregas also talked about Real Madrid’s new 80 million euro signing, Aurelien Tchouameni.
– The two were teammates at Monaco, and the Spaniard says he told the Blaugrana to sign the talented youngster last summer.
– “I know Tchouameni very well,” Fabregas said. “I spoke to people at Barcelona about recruiting him.
– “He is a player for the future, but financially, they couldn’t sign him.”
