Fabregas: Uninterested in City
Arsenal midfielder Cesc Fabregas feels it would be 'suicidal' for his career if he were to sign for Manchester City.
Backed by the financial muscle of Abu Dhabi United Group for Development and Investment (ADUG), new City owner Dr Sulaiman Al-Fahim recently revealed his ambition to add a number of world-class players to the squad in January.
Fabregas and Liverpool striker Fernando Torres are reportedly among the list of targets, while Al-Fahim went as far as to hint at a £135million bid for Manchester United winger Cristiano Ronaldo.
Gunners star Fabregas, though, has no intention of leaving Emirates Stadium should City bid for services in the next transfer window as he feels a move to Eastlands would prove detrimental to his career.
The Spain international said in the Telegraph: "It would be suicidal for my career at 21 years of age to move to City. It would make no sense."
