Manchester United target Cesc Fabregas has denied making contact with any clubs over a move away from Barcelona this summer, according to the Daily Mirror.

The 26-year-old has not managed to find his best form since re-joining Barcelona from Arsenal in 2011, leading to speculation that he could look to return to the Premier League this summer.

Arsenal supposedly have a buy-back clause in his contract and would have first refusal on the player, though he has controversially emerged as a top target for new Manchester United manager David Moyes, who is looking for a new midfield playmaker following the retirement of Paul Scholes.

Fabregas, however, says he is happy to be at his hometown club, having made no secret of his desire to return for a long time even during his Arsenal days.

“People talk a lot but the truth is that no-one has spoken with me,” he said.

“I want to triumph in Barcelona, that club is my home and I always dreamed of playing there, so I will try and succeed there as long as I can.”

United may now move for his team-mate Thiago Alcantara, another player who has not always been a regular at the Nou Camp due to the vast competition ahead of him.
Fabregas, meanwhile, is already looking to next season and has welcomed the arrival of Brazilian starlet Neymar to the club this summer, though he admits the youngster may need time to settle.
He added: “Neymar will need time to adapt because he is coming from a completely different type of football from what he will find here. We need to help him settle in and grow so that he can give us great nights.”
