Barca star believes he could be set for Manchester United switch



The player's entourage are of the view that Old Trafford is his most likely destination, despite interest from Chelsea, Arsenal and others

Cesc Fabregas' entourage still believe that Manchester United is the Spain midfielder's most likely destination this summer, MirrorSport understands.

The former Arsenal skipper has been told by Barcelona that he can leave the club for £30million and his representatives have contacted top clubs across Europe to evaluate their interest.

Those closest to the Barca star have received positive overtures from the Old Trafford outfit, but transfers this summer will be at the behest of Louis van Gaal who is currently more keen on alternative midfield targets, meaning Chelsea also remains a possible destination should Jose Mourinho fail to complete his desired business.

Ex-boss Arsene Wenger is well aware of the 27-year-old's availability but is thought to be prioritizing other positions this summer as he looks to build on the Gunners' FA Cup win. 

Manchester City may make a move if Yaya Toure's future lurches further into doubt, but the Ivorian is likely to stay at the Etihad and Manuel Pellegrini is keen instead to sign a defensive midfielder, with Porto's Fernando Reges already in discussions with the champions over a £20million switch.
