So here we go again! Barca is going to be relentless in their pursuit for our own home grown talent Fab from Arsenal as well Mascherano from Liverpool. After a summer long saga involving us, Liverpool and Arsenal that failed to bear any fruit in terms of any concrete result, Txiki has declared that Barca will in future again pursue the Duo from England to reinforce the squad. The reason stated by him for our failure to sign them was Economic and REAL MADRID’s extravagant spending. So the Madrid Bastards with their fat pay checks have done it again. Screwed around with Transfer Market by inflating every one’s prices like so many times before. Well if players will start getting transferred at almost the price of one of England’s biggest clubs in terms of Fans ( Read Newcastle United ), this is bound to happen.
It appears Barcelona will renew their efforts to sign Javier Mascherano and Cesc Fabregas at some stage in the future, after their director of football Txiki Begiristain was quoted by Sport as saying that the pursuit of the two midfielders is “something the club has left for later”.
Liverpool manager Rafael Benitez issued a hands-off warning regarding Mascherano during the summer, having already let Xabi Alonso leave for Real Madrid, but it appears that the Blaugrana have not given up in their attempts to land the Argentinean captain.
Arsenal skipper Fabregas has been the subject of continued speculation about a possible return to Camp Nou, despite saying he was focused and fully committed to the Gunners, and Begiristain now claims that the reason both players didn’t sign for Barca is purely economical.
He cited the lavish summer spending of rivals Real Madrid as the reason for the price of both players being raised to unacceptable levels.“Mascherano and Cesc did not come because of financial difficulties. It was impossible to pay the kind of money asked for after the spending of Real Madrid.”
