future in the hands of Arsene
Wenger and says he will not let
his possible transfer to Barcelona
distract him from his World Cup
campaign with Spain.

Fabregas is believed to have told
Arsenal he wants to leave for
Barcelona this summer and bring
to an end a seven-year stay in
North London that has seen him
mature into one of world
football's leading midfielders.
Barcelona are yet to make a firm
offer for the player who quit their
youth academy to join the
Gunners in 2003, but the Spanish
champions revealed on Tuesday
that initial contact had been made
between the two clubs.
Fabregas has spoken of the
"respect" he has for Wenger after
confirming he held a lengthy
conversation with the Arsenal
manager, and says his destiny will
now be determined by his club,
leaving him free to focus on the
World Cup.
"I will only say one thing, I have
great respect for Arsene Wenger,
for Arsenal Football Club and for
the Arsenal fans," Fabregas said in
a press conference. "Sometimes
not even in my house have I felt
more loved than I have at Arsenal.
"I had a long conversation with
Arsene, it is probably the greatest
conversation I have had with someone in my life, and I respect him so much and I don't want to say too much about this."He told me to concentrate on my football, to concentrate on the World Cup. He told me to leave it in his hands and he will deal with whatever happens for my future.That is what I'm doing:concentrate on my football."It is not up to me anymore, it is just now about Arsenal and however it has to be, that is it. I don't want to say anything else, I just want to be focused on the World Cup because it is the most important thing. The rest is the future, and I am not interested in the future."Fabregas missed the conclusion of the Premier League season due to a fractured leg but says he is recovering well ahead of the finals in South Africa."The feelings couldn't be better after training three days normally," Fabregas said. "Now it's as if I'm in pre-season, I have heavy legs which is normal at the start."
