Yeah he is Spanish and they got him from Barcelona in 2003. They got him for an Undisclosed fee, but i'm sure they will have to fork out a bit when he is in the team regular.

He is Arsenals youngest ever first team player, he played at 16 yrs old.

Spanish starlet Francesc Fabregas has pledged his future to Arsenal by signing a new long-term contract at Highbury.

The 17-year-old midfielder has established himself as one of the Gunners' hottest prospects after becoming the youngest player to appear for the club the youngest ever goalscorer.

I got emailed this from a Friend whose goes out with a relative that is involved in with Arsenal he said that the players were taking the mick out of Cesc after his performances and they were saying how Real Madrid will be tapping him up apparently he got upset and basically told everyone there is no chance in hell i would sign for them *********


(you see he is a Catalan) so that is why he replied the way he did

any idea how long this contract is? maybe with the comments about real madrid, maybe one day he is hoping to go back to barcelona and play

good news for arsenal though

he scored the other night against england in a under 21 match. but his manager wenger is worried incase he burns out

Arsene Wenger fears that Cesc Fabregas could suffer from burn-out from playing too many games.

The talented teenager has already made 15 appearances this season, due mainly to a growing injury crisis at Highbury.
