Fabregas ‘wholeheartedly committed’ to Gunners

CESC FABREGAS has reacted to speculation over his future by insisting he is “wholeheartedly committed to Arsenal”.

The Spain midfielder has been linked with moves to former club Barcelona and big-spending Real Madrid in recent days, and was quoted in reports yesterday berating his team-mates’ “impotence” in their attempts to win silverware.

However, Fabregas has hit back at suggestions he could be ready to quit the Emirates Stadium and told the club’s website: “I’m not sure how many times I need to talk directly about my commitment to Arsenal as I continue to say the same thing over and over again, but it appears that every time I have spoken to the Spanish media recently, my words have bounced back to England, leaving question marks about my future.
