Cesc Fabregas: "Arsenal will always be in my heart"

Chelsea midfielder Cesc Fabregas says that "you never know" in response to rumours that he could be on his way back to Arsenal.

Chelsea midfielder Cesc Fabregas has refused to rule out a return to former club Arsenal when he becomes a free agent next summer.

The Spain international represented the Gunners for eight years before moving to Barcelona in 2011, where he spent three seasons.

Fabregas came back to the Premier League with Chelsea in 2014, with no offers forthcoming from Arsenal at the time, but 31-year-old has hinted that he would be interested in swapping West London for North London.

"Arsenal will always be in my heart and I will never forget them so why not return. You never know," he told Marca. "I feel fine still. In seven months my contract ends with Chelsea.

"It will be 16 seasons playing at the highest level, over 750 games, a lot of training, travelling... I feel young and strong but maybe I can't do 60 games a season.

"With my style I think I can keep playing for longer and obviously I want to keep playing for many years."

Fabregas has yet to start a Premier League game for Chelsea this season, with his only appearance coming from the bench in 4-0 win over Burnley on Sunday.
